Private property rights on life support

Welcome to a brave new world. Today the Supreme Court ruled that eminent domain can be used for private projects. That means that the little piece of soil you call your own actually only belongs to you at the leisure of your government. When they want someone else to have it, they'll just take it away from you. Government has been chipping away at private property rights for some time now. Today they took out a big chunk. The Supreme Court is slowly turning the Consitition into a socialist document through its rulings.
