Q: What Caused So Many of our G.I.'s to Loose their GI Homes?

A: our entire nation after 1944 that if they dared to purchase properties and began to prosper they would be protected by our amazing Bill of Rights that spoke about those protections.

“ We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, ensure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”

Before Counter Culture Revolution: We were free to speak, own firearms, go to any church of our choice who did not pay taxes, supported our church with deductions from our taxes. We were free to own and protect our properties or real estate and the government helped protect us with local police forces who worked for the people.

A: the 4^th Amendment guaranteed we are secure in any lawful enterprise we choose to purchase was safe from our government’s intrusion. Most of this generation of G.I.’s were forced to memorize the Bill of Rights before they could bet out of the 5^th grade.

A: Seventh Amendment refers to a safe body of what the author called Common Law: This safe body of common law was meant to protect all of our Bill of Rights including the 4^th amendment right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects. Historically [until the counter culture revolution] this body of common law did a pretty good job of informing courts at all levels as well as state and local governments about our rights each citizen is to enjoy.

A: Eminent Domain: The power of governments to take private real or personal property has always existed in the United States, being a part of the common law inherited from England. This power reposes in the legislative branch of the government and may not be exercised unless the legislature has authorized its use by statutes that specify who may use it and for what purposes. The legislature may so delegate the power to private entities like public utilities or railroads, and even to individuals for the purpose of acquiring access to their landlocked land. Its use was limited by the Takings Clause in the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1791, which reads, "...nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation".

A: IRS seizures: The Internal Revenue Code provides for a federal tax lien in favor of the government against any person who fails to pay federal taxes. 26 U.S.C. § 6321. This lien attaches to "all property and rights to property, whether real or personal, belonging to such person."

A: Property Tax Seizures: In 1796 seven of the fifteen states levied uniform capitation taxes. In the United States, property tax on real estate is usually levied by local government, at the municipal or county level. Those who live in city limits face double property taxation, once by the city and once again by the county. Property taxes are imposed by counties, municipalities, and school districts, where the millage rate is usually determined by county commissioners, city council members, and school board members, respectively. The taxes fund budgets for schools, police, fire stations, hospitals, garbage disposal, sewers, road and sidewalk maintenance, parks, libraries, and miscellaneous expenditures. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_tax 6/27/2009 11:58 AM.
