New York Gubernatorial Candidate Carl Paladino has propesed a Free Market solution to the Ground Zero Victory Mosque in this CNN (Comie New Network) interview
Paladino stakes out the Libertarian position as governor he would cut taxes, abortion, same-sex marriage Medicaid, cut taxes and the size of government. While as True Christians™ we may take issue with his permissiveness this bit of fee market thinking has caught our attention.
Paladino will use the libertarian doctrine of Eminent Domain and confiscate the land at 911 Victory Mosque and turn it into a 911 memorial. Apparently Paladino would like to extend that to all building touched by dust on 911 that they all be declared 911 memorials.
It is about time that we place our trust in people and not in government, like Paladino is doing here. We need to trust in people to exploit the law to forcibly take the private property of people they don't like

We will declare it, under the law, to be a right which is within the definition of public use. As long as it is within the definition of public use, which includes the zoning restrictions, then we would have a right to use eminent domain to place such a restriction over all the properties in that area.
