TvNewsLIES Headline News

TVNL Editor's Comments: It is very possible that the decision by the Supreme Court to allow our homes and business to be seized at any time for economic improvements, might be the one event that changes everything that we cherish in our nation. The word “freedom” can no longer be associated with a nation that does not permit people to maintain possession of their assets, especially when it comes to their domain. With little fanfare and with one court ruling this America as we know it came to an end. Although this was discussed in the media it deserves a great deal more attention. What has to be discussed and explained to the people of this nation is the virtually unlimited potential for abuse left open by the ruling.

This decision was the legal justification for class warfare and it permitted money to be the only weapon. In other words only the rich can win. Where are the pundits with their mantras now? Go ahead and say it: “Class Warfare!” And it was not launched by the left. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org
