Someone explain to me how a state that can Deep Six eminent domain grab-assery and eliminate state sales taxes, can produce someone like Joe Biden?

The Congressional Housing Bill allows and funds CITIES to use eminent domain in regard to supbrime ‘blight’. The Delaware Bill does not contravene the Housing Bill use of eminent domain for seizure...whole squares of blocks can be taken, even if some mortgage paying homeowners in the black are involved in the area. At least one article at the time gave H. Paulson the credit for intervening with Rep Frank to include and fund with several billion $$ the eminent domain initiatives in the Housing Bill...the original protections were thus removed. Thus, cities can still use as with the Kelo Decision eminent domain for condemnation, posession and REDISTRIBUTION AND USE, only now the initiatives for seizure are FUNDED with billions...sound familiar?

They can recognize the need to get rid of “eminent domain” when it comes to private profit, so why can’t they do the flip side of the coin and eliminate it for the purposes of gov’t benefit?

The former is a crime, like stealing a car.
The latter is a crime plus waste and bloat, like stealing and immediately blowing up your car, with new bureaucratic “jobs” to supervise its destruction.
