The article discusses the potential U.S. Supreme Court case, Bowers v. Oneida County Industrial Development Agency, which could overturn Kelo v. New London. Critics allege abuses of eminent domain, especially in New York, where state officials seize property for private development, highlighting issues of corruption and crony capitalism. Additionally, it examines population shifts post-COVID, noting that blue states like California and Illinois have lost residents while red states like Florida and Texas have gained. This trend poses electoral risks for Democrats unless significant reforms occur to improve conditions in blue states.
The Kelo decision alerted the public that takings of private property are often corrupt, performed by politicians to reward friends and allies.
Florida and Texas gained more than 1 million residents combined while their blue counterparts barely broke 400,000 cumulatively.
