Thanks for the post and for the startling photographs -
"When government aids historic
preservation with tax dollars, regulations, or in any way, the
government
becomes the violator of property rights.

The purpose of government is to protect individuals and their property
from
interference by others. That is why Libertarians, Objectivists, and
freedom-loving people oppose government assistance in historic
preservation.

As an attorney, the historian Dr. Rex Curry (author of "Pledge of
Allegiance
Secrets") is consulted about historic preservation laws, historic
districts
and other violations of private property rights. Known as the
"Libertarian
Historic Preservationist," he notes that today's historic
preservationists
impede greater histories of the future. Historic preservationists
block
future historic structures. They prevent historic homes from being
replaced
by new homes that would also become historical. Newer structures
become
more historical than the old ones, thanks to capitalism.
Historic preservation is antidisestablishmentarianism. The 28-letter
word
describes people who stop others from fighting the establishment and
changing things. Preservationism was thoroughly debunked by the
capitalist
philosopher Ayn Rand in her novel "The Fountainhead."
Preservationists are
neo-luddites and, like the luddites of 19th Century England, they
fight
progress as well as the liberty, property rights and capitalism that
bring
progress, and they use old structures as an excuse.

It is the dogma of American socialists like Francis Bellamy (author of
the
"Pledge of Allegiance") and Edward Bellamy (author of the book
"Looking
Backward") and their desire to nationalize all property in their
global
nationalism movment.

That dogma of socialism not only destroys history and historic
structures,
it also destroys prosperity and lives. It did all of that and more in
the
socialist Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part): ~60 million
slaughtered under the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics; ~50 million
under
the Peoples' Republic of China; ~20 million under the National
Socialist
German Workers' Party. http://rexcurry.net/swastika3swastika.jpg
