Property rights conference will harness outrage

The Washington Times reports:

Property rights leaders and grass-roots activists plan to assemble tomorrow at a New York state conference to galvanize activism at a time when the issue of owners' rights has drawn national attention.
In June, the Supreme Court ruled in the Connecticut case of Kelo v. City of New London that government, usually cities and counties, can seize private property and redistribute it to a private developer who will use it to generate tax revenue.

Kind of a strange state to hold a property rights conference.New York City justifies rent control because they must think World War Two is still a factor in the local real estate market.
