Where are Our Priorities?

On the heels of Connecticut's eminent domain fiasco comes this news from American Dinosaur:

Ft. Lowell's days of old may be just a memory

"A piece of historic old Fort Lowell is in danger of being pushed aside to make way for a new subdivision.

The full story is here, in the Arizona Daily Star.

The owner is selling the property to the highest bidder, for a housing subdivision. I know that's his right, but there's just something kind of "ewwww..." about the whole thing.

Now, if we can take property from legal owners to get a town better tax revenue (as in New London, CT), can't we do something about destroying a part of our nation's history just to make a buck?

This is one of those times when I'd really like to win Powerball....
