I'm not sure you can demand rent from someone who has not signed and agreed to a lease.

Meanwhile, can someone remind me which corporations are being rewarded for their compassion for the public interest with the titles to these peoples homes? I think those corporations have an opportunity to speak now.

Grind the poor to powder. So that is the plan. You need to fight this or we all go down.

Thanks. If WorldNetDaily has this right, Pfizer needs to come forward now.

NJ has something called the Highlands Act. Supposedly to protect ground water.

Essentially it forbids people from developing their land in a certain part of the state, while allowing all the development in the parts of the state where the majority of the elected officials live.

This is no different than TAKING or EMINENT DOMAIN.

The pols decided who shall be able to develop their land and who may not. AFTER the land was bought and paid for under entirely different laws.

"From a political standpoint, the city might be better off trying to reach some settlement with the homeowners," Jeremy Paul, an associate UConn law dean who teaches property law, told the paper.

The only 'settlement' should be under the Second Amendment.

It confirms, that "all politics is local -- and they are the worst."

These Kelo city officials really have no clue just how dispicable they are do they?

The only way I can see if the 'city' can charge rent is IF they 'paid' them for the fair market value at the time of the condemnation, and paid the homeowners interest on the money if they never actually gave it to them.

When I heard about the Kelo decision, I said to a friend that eventually, someone's going to die because of this decision... Hasn't happened yet, but I have no doubt that it will.

I suggest that the city owes back interest in at least the same amounts due for back rent. Unless the owners have already received the money from the city for their property. Then they might be screwed.
