an empty place v3.5

Sometimes I just don't know why I bother looking at the news. I've always hated it, I never opted for a news broadcast over, well, anything really. I know, I should stay more informed, but about what? Its not like I have any control over anything; atleast it seems that way. But, glancing through FARK I found this article: Supreme Court Rules Cities May Seize Homes. What the @#%!& is this about? I wonder, if this had passed sooner if there would have been as much hassel when they planned a new interstate through some neighborhoods and the Sunshine Speedway.

So basically, while some people are thrilled the track is gone, that wasn't the only property that got the axe. Thing is, these properties were purchased. With this new decision by the Supreme Court, it would seem that would no longer be necessary. Sure hope they don't decide to drive a hyper-space byway through my neighborhood.
