You know, "Just the Facts", this issue of the Greater Public Good (as in more tax revenue allegedly helps more citizens with services supplied) vs INDIVIDUAL rights used to have a boundary defined in EMINENT DOMAIN.
The boundary used to be that no government could take your land even with compensation if it does not involve highways, sewers, water, schools.
Now government can take your land with compensation even if it involves private investors who promise the city revitalization of a downtown area with more tax revenue.
All for the GREATER PUBLIC GOOD.
Often individual liberty is taken away for a worthy convenience.
Look at cell phones, the first step to everyone complicity acknowledging the value of knowing where everyone is at all times, trumps the value of privacy for privacy sake.
