Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: does not tell the entire story Comment: I read this book and found some of the stories about people going to jail for years over trying to "clean-up" their property just too hard to believe so I did a Google search on some of the family names in this book of people that were sent to prison for nothing more than cleaning up their property only to find that he does not tell the whole story. He leaves out the real reason they were tried and convicted. And it wasn't because they wanted to just cleaned up their property. He exaggerates and leaves out key issues. Customer Rating: Summary: Every American should be concerned! Comment: Every American who is concerned with the direction that our country is headed should read this book! Customer Rating: Summary: Good info Comment: A great compilation of property rights related horror stories, broken down by category: endangered species, eminent domain, DEC/EPA, etc. Customer Rating: Summary: Wake Up to the Loss of Your Rights! Comment: I bought this book because a local city council is overstepping its bounds and telling private property owners what can and cannot be done on their property, but there are so many other things that intrusive government is attempting that exceeds the limits our Framers put in place in the Constitution. You ought to read this book to see what some of them are and how we can all fight back against the "power that be" and reclaim "power to the people." Customer Rating: Summary: Read It And Relate It Comment: After spending billions to defeat the dictators of Nazism and Communism we have home grown our own fascists...BOTH parties are guilty of allowing this undermining of freedom to go on.... In direct violation of the the Fourth Amaendment...Nameless, faceless judges and bureaucrats are literally stealing the life work of thousands of private citizens... Buy this book and publicize it....We need thousands of Paul Reveres... More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: After years of hard work and saving, you finally own a home. But don't get too comfortable. If government officials decide they want your property, they can take it for a wide variety of shady reasons that go far beyond the usual definition of "public purposes." The courts have allowed these injustices to persist. And there is nothing you can do about it not yet. Real estate developer and property rights expert Don Corace offers the first in-depth look at eminent domain abuse and other government regulations that are strangling the rights of property owners across America. Government Pirates is filled with shocking stories of corrupt politicians, activist judges, entrenched bureaucrats, greedy developers, NIMBY (Not-in-My-Backyard) activists, and environmental extremists who conspire to seize property and extort money and land in return for permits. Corace provides the hard facts about individual rights and offers invaluable advice for those whose property may be in danger. It is the one book that every property owner in America has to read.
