Is Eminent Domain a New York Value? Yes, 3 Reasons Why.

In an Op-Ed about Bloomberg considering a 3rd party run for President, eminent domain is labled a New York value because:

• In Manhattan “property rights of small homeowners and business people are like bugs on the windshield of the city’s swashbuckling real estate developers and the ribbon-cutting politicians who enable them.”
• Bloomberg campaigned against the post-Kelo backlash
• As Bloomberg said, ““You would never build any big thing any place in any big city in this country if you didn’t have the power of eminent domain.””
