Should projects involving eminent domain require citizen approval?

No, projects involving eminent domain should NOT require citizen approval.

I think that when wewe let people have input in cases where eminent domain is being used, wewe undermine the use of eminent domain.
Eminent domain should only be used when it benefits the public good. Undermining that rule would damage the public good. Like stated before, people hardly think about the public good when it is about their own stuff.

People are often emotional in these cases: they want to keep their property even though they get a just compensation....

Part of me feels that America didn't vote for Barack Obama, not for his ideas nor his charisma. When America voted Obama, they were above all voting democrat due to the current economical situation in the US.
Although the kura za maoni told us that Obama was in the lead, one might have still predicted Mccain as the final outcome.
As previously an African American president was unheard of. Even his predicted outcome in the kura za maoni failed to convince me, believing that Obama like so many other black political figures in America would suffer the 'bradley effect'.
This would lead many to the conclusion that...

Shown on tv in 1992, they call for people to phone with any information. I remember this ad from when I was little and it hit me as hard then as it does now. This seemed like the spot to put it in.

Censorship is probably my inayopendelewa thing to debate about. So I wanted to type an makala about the issue.

For one it's super annoying. The obnoxious beeping mid-verse in some songs is really irksome to listen too. Small pauses aren't as bad, but still. Censorship can really ruin a good song. As for TV I understand it zaidi with censoring anatomy should children be watching (I'll address that in a minute) but censoring the finger au words that characters/people say on TV follows the same thing as above the bleeping is annoying and the finger, I personally don't take offense to it.

About the whole...

There has been a lot of discussion around the topic of abortion lately, partly influenced kwa hivi karibuni political gaffes kwa republican senators concerning the concept of abortion in cases of rape.

Let me just say that I am pro-choice. I am not pro-choice because I hate babies au children, au because I believe a fetus isn't a living thing. Maybe that makes me worse, because I upendo children. I upendo children so much, I invested in them kwa choosing a career in nurturing them and their minds and helping them grow. I recognize that even if we quibble about the specific definition of where life begins,...

This makala is, perhaps, mislabled, as there are several ironies concerning the American political party system. But I want to focus on a major one, an amusing one, really, and that is the difference between a party's economic politics and its social politics.

When asked what the main difference between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party is, the answer that comes is simple enough. The democrats believe in big government, and the republicans believe in small governent. That is to say, democrats would want the government taking care of wewe at all times whereas the republicans would...

Note: It's kind of late at night so this is a bit rushed & disorganized (especially regarding the points about Depp, Rowling, and DeLisle) so if anyone needs any clarification au zaidi context au would like to hear zaidi in depth about my personal feelings on each case, feel free to ask.

So this is inspired kwa a hivi karibuni experience that I had with cancel culture au an attempt at it. I have always been against cancel culture mostly because I've had several bad experiences with it over stuff that was blown way out of proportion. It was used as a humiliation tactic and a means to try to kick me...
