*The date for [[eminent domain]] is incorrect: 1738.<ref>http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/eminent%20domain</ref>  The term ''dominium eminens'' was used as early as 1625.<ref>[http://scholar.lib.vt.edu/theses/available/etd-4744152149731401/unrestricted/CONCLS.PDF American Jurispudence, 26, Second Edition, (Rochester, NY: Lawyers Corporation)]</ref>

*The description of [[pogrom]] is not precisely correct.  Merriam-Webster calls it an organized [[massacre]] of helpless people.  Pogrom is a [[Yiddish]] term used in [[Russian]] beginning in the late 1800s to describe an organized campaign of [[violence]] (not always a "massacre") against [[Jewish]] people in [[Russia]].
   
*[[Capital]] is poorly defined as accumulated goods, or the value of those goods, or net worth.  It is more commonly used to mean [[liquid assets]] such as [[cash]], [[stocks]], [[bonds]] that can be easily used to acquire [[goods]] and [[services]].
