[Taxman]

Recent Supreme Court decision re: The Takings Clause certainly didn't expand FReedom, did it?

I'm looking for an article I read several years ago that rather thoroughly demonstrated that the Manifesto is about 70% implemented in the US.

Will post it when I find it.

No, it certainly didn't. I don't even use that issue in my land property tax argument, but it's the capper.

I'm glad Blood of Tyrants made me think about it some more, because I realized that there might be a way to tell how far along the path your individual state may be. Several years ago, my state passed a law giving you two years to pay up, or they grabbed "your" land and sold it. They were having problems with "land owners" acting like it was actually their land, and going many years into arrears.

Can't have that, dontchaknow. ;-)
