Thomas Jefferson and George Mason, suported a Bill of Rights in the Virgina Constitution because they feared that without it government would eventually assume the peoples rights did not exist beyond there own laws.
All to often these local governments are conjuring up economic taking plans that are simply not justified, nor are they properly investigated as to the truthfulness of there necessity.
