I do as I said have a problem with "The State" seizing someone's property to give to a private contractor to build high priced housing for a small percentage of the population.

If "The State" is going to seize someone's property they had other then the cars of drunk/impaired unlicensed/uninsured drivers they need to show just cause and provide adequate compensation for doing so. In the case of drunk/impaired unlicensed/uninsured drivers they should be able to seize the vehicle(s) and sell them at public auction as that is for the betterment of the general public.
I want to share with you a few of the tentative conclusions I've reached regarding Digital Cowboy's canards. And I stress the word "tentative," because the subject of what motivates Cowboy is tricky and complex. To plunge right into it, pudibund conformism is Cowboy's quiddity. Cowboy may mean well, but many members of his polity believe that women are crazed Pavlovian sex-dogs who will salivate at any object even remotely phallic in shape. Even worse, almost all of his functionaries believe that space aliens are out to lay eggs in our innards or ooze their alien hell-slime all over us. (One would think that the mammalian brain could do better than that, but apparently not.) My point is that you shouldn't let Cowboy intimidate you. You shouldn't let him push you around. We're the ones who are right, not Cowboy.

What if we collectively just told Cowboy's helpers, "Sure, go ahead and make a cause célèbre out of his campaign to cast dissent as treason and criticism as espionage. Have fun!"? That would be worse than heartless; it would lionize prissy parasites. If we let Cowboy alter, amend, abridge, and censor the record to point the finger of responsibility at others, then greed, corruption, and tribalism will characterize the government. Oppressive measures will be directed against citizens. And lies and deceit will be the stock-in-trade of the media and educational institutions. If you think about it, no man who values himself, who has any regard for sound morality, or who feels any desire to see intellectual progress made certain, can rightfully join his addlepated, lamebrained attempt to prevent us from recognizing the vast and incomparable achievements, contributions, and discoveries that are the product of our culture.

Consider the following, which I'll address in greater detail later: Cowboy believes that cell-phone towers are in fact covert mind-control devices that use scalar waves to beam images into people's brains while they sleep. Unfortunately, as long as he believes such absurdities, he will continue to commit atrocities. Of course, there is a lot of debate on this subject but the best scholars feel that he has written more than his fair share of lengthy, over-worded, pseudo-intellectual tripe. In all such instances Cowboy conveniently overlooks the fact that he maintains that the Earth is flat. That's not just a lie but is actually the exact opposite of the truth—and Cowboy knows it. Why is Cowboy deliberately turning the truth on its head like that? Well, I asked the question so I should answer it. Let me start by saying that Cowboy needs to stop living in denial. He needs to wake up and realize that he likes campaigns of malice and malignity that make us too confused, demoralized, and disunited to put up an effective opposition to his prevarications. Could there be a conflict of interest there? If you were to ask me, I'd say that if I try really, really hard, I can almost see why he would want to quash other people's opinions. Before you read this letter, you might have thought that Digital Cowboy's endeavors are a breath of fresh air amid our modern culture's toxic cloud of chaos. Now you know that Cowboy cottons to antipluralism.
