Private Property.

"Private" is not a word in the US Constitution.

Property. Property can now be taken from you by government and given to another person for a (undefined) public purpose.

America, where are you?

As soon as the Kellog decision was published, I posted here that the key concept was this: The USSC has rewritten the fifth amendment to say "public purpose" rather than "public use".

The robed rascals have amended the Constitution without having to get 2/3 or 3/4 votes anyplace. And the people are, like, "Whoa man, those poor people, losin' their homes like that. Hey, pass me a beer, will ya? CSI's about to start."
