As far as the contention that this is a right wing idea, American conservatives have always championed private property rights.

Given that our leftists pretty rarely veer right off into straight up communism and fascism your statement has little bearing on what's going on around here. If this were happening in say France you might have something though.
You can hardly argue that the right doesn't support corporations ability to assrape people if they can get away with it though. After all it's at the heart of supporting unbridled capitalism.
Regardless of the ability to throw the blame to either side really everyone should be pissed about this.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
