And civil asset forfeiture was supposed to be just for fighting drug dealers but now being used in all sorts of cases [1]. Governments and other organizations will use all of the powers given to them and then some. The populace will continue to be deceived by the classic divide and conquer for as long as people allow it. The courts don't seem to be stepping up to the plate on these laws which seem very unconstitutional on the face of it from my naive standpoint.
