I'm a conservative (fiscally, not socially) and if true, I find that appalling. Its like the drug forfeiture laws, they take your stuff before you've had due process, then make you spend other money (if they didn't take it first) in order to get your stuff back. The government needs to stick to what they're supposed to do; defend the borders, build road and other things like water and sewage treatment plants and get out of the "We know what's best for you" mentality. This applies to both the Dems and the Reps.
