And all that needs to happen is to take a few people, through corruption (that's what government fraud is called) declare the result of 20 years of saving (those houses) worthless and then throw them into the street.

Do you really think that people will benefit under a government/company combination that finds these actions acceptable ?

Because ... they won't. No way.

Those people get more than fair market value for the houses. They aren’t getting thrown in the street. Check the facts.

No, they objectively aren’t. That’s the entire reason they are categorizing the houses are blighted:

>on their properties. Many brought pictures. “We spent our life savings on this thing, and now we gotta move,” said Alfredo Ortiz, an 18-year resident. “It’s an insult,” he added, reflecting the general mood of the testimonies. It was extremely personal for these residents; having your carefully maintained residence, or in at least one case, recently built dream home, designated as blighted.

It’s weird though because republicans are normally the defenders of propert rights, but I guess they always do default to favoring the rich over the poor so this is still consistent. Just compare the quality of life and wages from Wisconsin (republican stronghold) to Minnesota (democrat controlled) and it’s obvious which is better run...

What have Republicans done to defend property rights? Are you talking about gun rights?

Republicans defend/favor property rights whereas democrats defend/favor civil rights.

I know the meme I just can’t think of any examples.
