| | Property Rights Amendment
Vote "Yes" for Virginia Eminent Domain
Constitutional Amendment
Our founding fathers understood the importance of property rights. This is why the U.S. Constitution's Fifth Amendment protects this fundamental right. It protects the individual's decision-making authority to do with their property as they deem necessary. Over the centuries, this right has eroded until 2005 when the U.S. Supreme Court infringed on this right with the ruling of Kelo v. New London. The Court ruled "that the general benefits a community enjoyed from economic growth qualified private redevelopment plans as a permissible 'public use' under the Takings Clause of the Fifth Amendment." Since this ruling, city managers, planners and elected officials across the nation have been developing "Master Plans" to justify their decisions of other's properties. To combat this, Virginia State legislators and Virginia Tea Party Federation fought to get a Constitutional Amendment on the ballot. These two videos demonstrate a contrast between individual property rights and collective property rights. Bob Wilson provides a glimpse of an individual practicing his property rights and his business in providing a legacy to his family and contributing to the community. Able to make decisions in the best interest of his business, Mr. Wilson contributes to his community and provides to the collective.  | | Rob Bell & Bob Wilson - Eminent Domain (Thanks to HRTP) |
Warren Harris, Virginia Beach Director of Economic Development provides a glimpse into the collective property rights ownership. He gave a presentation on the future of Virginia Beach and incorporating "Light Rail". "We're not going to be a community that is developed...in a shotgun approach, sprawl is no longer the design development of the day." This Youtube video was uploaded by AlphaCollegeofRE. |
