> City of New Orleans plan to "Usufruct" Poor Citizens: Govt to take control of private homes

Funny, but to me this smells of a unilateral take-over of property by the government. They target those area where they know that the owners will never be able to pay for repairs and renovation. After that, the property is theirs to hand over to their rich republican friends at cheap prices. The end result will be that the majority of the poor will never get their homes back, and will not even be paid what the "eminent domain" laws would demand.
