GOVERNMENT ABUSE - How POLITICIANS STEAL Homes and Sell Them for a PROFIT
GOVERNMENT ABUSE - How POLITICIANS STEAL Homes and Sell Them for a PROFIT
Oct. 1, 2024
John Stossel
Did you know some towns in America are basically stealing people’s homes?
One missed tax payment and the government takes your entire house, sells it, and keeps all the money.
It’s hard to believe that could happen in America, but it does. It happened to Tawanda Hall.
Hall was behind on her property taxes. She was on a payment plan, but short $900.
What did her county government do? They took her entire $308,000 house.
Hall tried to pay off the debt but says, “They didn’t want our money… They wanted our house."
I covered her story two years ago.
Her lawyer, Christina Martin of the Pacific Legal Foundation, told me this is unconstitutional.
“The government can’t take more than it’s owed,” she explains.
Now, she’s won in the U.S. Supreme Court. The justices voted 9-0 that such takings are unconstitutional.
Yet, in a handful of states, greedy government officials still steal people’s homes.

Description:
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom.
Libertarian journalist John Stossel created Stossel TV to explain liberty and free markets to young people.
Prior to Stossel TV he hosted a show on Fox Business and co-anchored ABC's primetime newsmagazine show, 20/20.
Stossel's economic programs have been adapted into teaching kits by a non-profit organization, "Stossel in the Classroom." High school teachers in American public schools now use the videos to help educate their students on economics and economic freedom. They are seen by more than 12 million students every year.
Stossel has received 19 Emmy Awards and has been honored five times for excellence in consumer reporting by the National Press Club. Other honors include the George Polk Award for Outstanding Local Reporting and the George Foster Peabody Award.
