Rick Perry Sneers at Private Property Rights- The Trans Texas Corridor

Occurs to me that people nationally, outside of Texas, may not realize just how much of a lie Rick Perry's claim to be a protector of private property rights actually is. The prime exhibit is Perry's push to take away people's property through eminent domain to put in a gigantic TOLL ROAD that would run, in at least 3 different areas, through Texas. The toll road would have been run by a foreign corporation, Cintra, rather than, say, solely by the Texas Department of Transportation. Further, there were spiffs attempted (CDAs) where *free* roads would not be maintained IN ORDER TO get people to have to drive on the toll roads.
