Surprise! Housing Bill Expands Government Power!

I have been reading somewhat this week regarding the housing bill that Congress passed last weekend, and that President Bush changed his mind and agreed to sign. Did you know that it expands the power of government to use Federal funds and eminent domain to take the property of private landowners, including homeowners? Surprise!

In addition, the new housing bill also expands the power of the Federal government to monitor your online activity, including purchases and credit card activity. Surprise again!

So what does a housing bail-out have to do with monitoring your internet activity?

Good question!
