Our tax dollars have been going to improve the homes in Tinicum to make them more sound proof with new windows, doors, AC, and electric upgrades, and now that same government wants to buy 72 of them and knock them down to make room for airport expansion to the tune of $5.2 billion. I think eminent domain laws have completely gotten out of control. The law suit by the city of Tinicum is also paid for with tax dollars, maybe not mine, but it's wasteful considering it's unnecessary.

Murray sez:
This fits right in with the craziness of the "Cash for Clunkers" disaster. If destroying useable property so you can "spur" the economy works, then the government should have gone big time and destroyed skyscrapers and large buildings. They did it for two reasons. To help in the financial meltdown of our great country and to help finance the UAW.
If we don't stop the digging, we'll soon be another Greece!
