Forfeiture law permits the equivalent of theft by the government.

"Eighty percent of property forfeited to the US during the previous decade was seized from owners who were never even charged with a crime."

Just remember: you have civil rights, but they don't apply to your house. The government can charge your house with a crime, take it to court, find it guilty, and then sell it out from under you. Your house doesn't have the right to an attorney, and let us just say that the burden of proof on the prosecutor is ... limited.
