I thought I could draw some interest from this blog in helping a fundamentally libertarian cause: mainly, the threat of eminent domain abuse -- the government-forced seizure of private property for someone else's private use.

You may have read about one of the Institute for Justice's (IJ) historic Supreme Court cases called Kelo v. New London, in which a homeowner, Susette Kelo, held out against a private developer seeking to turn her home into debris by way of eminent domain. The court ruled in favor of New London, and paved the way for property rights of individuals to be substantially and absurdly quashed in the twenty-first century.

This Monday is the third anniversary for the Supreme Court's infamous decision. For the anniversary, Susette Kelo is hoping that those who strongly oppose eminent domain support the IJ in its effort to end eminent domain abuse. You can help support this powerful message by donating to the Institute for Justice, and help curtail the incidence of eminent domain abuse, which in the past five years alone included over 10,000 cases.

Feel free to spread the word!

Thanks, and have a great summer!
