In my opinion, Kelo vs. New London is the worst Supreme Court decision in at least 30 years. It paves the way for all kinds of intrusions on private property. The sanctity of property ownership is one of the cornerstones of a free society. I hope Congress successfully creates legislation to overturn the effects of Kelo.<br><b>References : </b><br> Historically in the US, eminent domain has been used only sparingly, and only for projects done by the government which have a measurable public purpose; for example, roads, schools, government buildings, etc. Kelo vs. New London changed all that; it is now legal to condemn and seize private property for the purpose of selling it to other private owners in order to increase the tax base of a municipality.
