BBC NEWS | UK | Councils could seize empty homes: "He added: 'Poorly maintained empty properties are magnets for vandals, drug users, squatters and even arsonists.
'Bringing empty homes back into use reduces opportunities for low level anti-social behaviour.'"
That's a good enough reason but it's far from what I would consider the best reason. If you didn't like the recent supreme court decision regarding eminent domain then the thought of this happening in the United States may make your head explode. I think it deserves some real consideration.
