Let the back lash continue:

Five Years After Kelo: The Sweeping Backlash Against One of the Supreme Court’s Most-Despised Decisions | Institute for Justice: Litigating for Liberty: "On June 23, 2005, the U.S. Supreme Court, in a 5-4 decision called Kelo v. City of New London,[1] ruled that private economic development is a public use under the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and that governments could take people’s homes, small businesses and other property to hand over to private developers in the hope of raising more tax revenue and creating more jobs."
