    Hmm... that's odd... where I come from, most of the large developers interested in malls and condos are private......

    Your right it is a private developer
    ...Developer hangs out with the Mayor, Sates Attorney, and on and on...he wants land owned by someone. This person does not want to sell, so the city ( his buddies) comes up with eminent domain.
    This is not a project to benefit the public. It is not a highway. It is not a utility...it is a condominium...and shopping malls. They give the landowner crap for the land. Then sell it to the Developer…..it is all politics, and it is a shame.

    yeah but ...how does that make it communism?
    whether or not its a corporation or an individual, the fact is it's PRIVATE.
    just because they obtained the land by having buddies in the right places, DOES NOT MAKE IT COMMUNISM :lol::lol:

    if that were the case, then EVERY political entity would be communists!

    i think they need to offer the good citizens of the USA a handbook called Communism 101...

    Yes the idiotic media can give a much better and faster account in a more entertaining (but hardly accurate) way!
