Judge Napolitano, on the Glenn Beck show, interviews UT State Rep. Carl Wimmer and Josh Eboch of the Tenth Amendment Center on eminent domain, state sovereignty, and more.
At 3:14, Judge Napolitano shows a map of the US marked in red for land claimed to be federal property, largely in the West. 80-90% of Utah and its resources have been so taken over, vast amounts during the Clinton admin (UN Heritage agenda, restricted roads, etc.), and D.C. wants more. The phrase "eminent domain" is nowhere in the Constitution. This is the "Enclave Clause" (Article I, Section 8, Clause 17) that D.C. has been violating as if bogus court rulings have nullified the stipulation that it must have the consent of State Legislatures for any land aquisitions from them (ex: for "needful Buildings" like Post Offices and roads for them; dock-Yards and military bases for the Common Defense of the public in general):
The Congress shall have Power...to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings;
Our Federal government is not empowered with ownership of land or anything else, whether it's purchased or donated for public use or for its own needs. It is merely to act as a caretaker of what then belongs to Americans as a whole, not "the government". It is not entitled to sell-off our property to foreigners nor to mortgage it for collateral on its loans/debts. Any such unlawful transactions amount to buying/selling stolen property.
Nevada's even worse and it looks like 80-90% of everything west of the Dakotas and Texas is "federally owned."
Yes, Nevada does look worse and I suspect that it has more to do with silver than Area 51. I remember seeing some documentary long ago that early miners there who were looking for gold kept trying to get rid of blue mud as a nuisance without knowing at the time that it contained silver.
Should be interesting as I wonder how much of that property now has a "lien" on it.
