==Re-doing the analysis==
 
The analysis needs to be redone. Eminent domain is a constitutional right of the government set in place by the God-loving, conservative Founding Fathers, which you guys have practically made saints. #2 is a violation of Godwin's law. #4 was a pet project of Alexander Hamilton, who you guys seem to love. #5 is nonsense (and blatantly false, considering Trump has called the 'fake news' the 'enemy of the people', borrowing a phrase from Robespierre), not to mention that we don't try to censor, control, or suppress Fox News. #6? Yeah, I'm with you on that one. Common Core is a disaster in every sense of the word. [[User:Koidevelopment|Vive]] [[User talk:Koidevelopment|Liberté!]] 22:22, 14 May 2017 (EDT)

:#1: To be clear, here's the "eminent domain clause of the Fifth Amendment: "...nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." It appears to be placing a restriction on the government's power on taking private land. It must be justly compensated. However, today the federal government is taking huge swaths of land for itself. That is not good policy (much the opposite).

:#2: I see no violation. It is a valid similarity. Like the Marx and NSDAP, left-wingers support a graduated income tax, where a higher proportion of the monetary property of the wealthy is taken from them than of poorer people. It's not that the wealthy cannot afford it, but it is not fair or just to take a higher proportion of monetary property away from certain people because they happen to have more of it. It's punishment for earning a higher income. They're all citizens of the U.S., equal under the law, and the purpose of taxation is to fund the government, not create equality.

:#4: I'm not the biggest Hamilton fan (but I don't necessarily hate him either), but you're forgetting that the federal reserve system was created in 1913.

:#5: Liberals supported the [[Fairness Doctrine]]. Leftists on college campuses throw their stupid temper tantrums whenever someone who doesn't agree with them is invited to speak at a college campus. Look at Betsy DeVos or Ann Coulter. They legitimately think that offensive speech should be banned (this would effectively repeal the 1st Amendment, as free speech is offensive speech). When have conservatives blocked liberals from speaking at college campuses? At Liberty University, a conservative Christian college that accepts a young earth view of the earth, many leftists have spoken upon invitation, including Bernie Sanders (who laughably tried to defend abortion by citing Amos, even though the Bible clearly says the opposite). It was the Obama Administration that shunned Fox News and conservative networks. It's liberals who falsely accuse conservative news organizations such as Breitbart and others as being "fake news," even though ridiculous sites such as Mother Jones and the NYT (which has made numerous errors like the rest of the MSM) get a pass. Some leftists want to literally impose censorship on conservative sites because they allegedly have "fake news" (whatever that means). This is the Left's method of censorship. Liberals control the editorial boards of all the important U.S. newspapers. They constantly seek to impose their left-wing views and influence the public. They constantly criticize Trump in what is supposed to be fair reporting. Whenever some disaster happens, regardless of what it is, they advocate for a more expansive government (school shootings, for example). If you read them, you'd think liberals were correct/sane of every issue and the opposite is the case for conservatives.... oh wait, that must actually be true, because the reputable mainstream media says so, and I don't want to believe the conservative fake media.
