Hugo the XIVth. legislates again Well, Chavez the XIVth., the Pluto King of Little Venice was legislating again (by susbcription) yesterday when he gave us this new piece of his wisdom: "All land is the property of the state..those that have title have "some rights"..." Whatever happened to Article 115 of the Constitution which clearly states: "The right to porperty is guaranteed. All persons have the right to use, enjoy, make the most of and dipose of their property. Property would be subject to the conditions, restrictions and obligations that the law establishes with the public good or general interest as its end. Only for reasons of public interest or social use by a firm sentence and opportune payment of compensentation can the expropriation of any type of property be declared." To me it sounds like it is the other way around, you own the land and the state may have the right to expropriate under certain conditions.. But hey, he is the law! 10:24:58 AM    comment []
