The impetus comes from “spare the rod, spoil the child”. Leftists have ruined the nation, so they must repay. Restrict the usage of eminent domain to apply only to those who cause debt, and only allow the seized assets to be used to pay off the national debt, and you can simultaneously follow the Scriptural mandate and stop government from growing too large.
The actual scripture concerning this is not as clearly biased to punishment as many vengeance-hearted would want.
I have always believed in comparing scripture to scripture. Bring Psalm 23 into the picture and it becomes apparent that quite often the rightful use of the rod is not to punish at all (hardly a “comforting” use) but to drive away baleful influences.
You are being an example of a baleful influence. Nothing like this could ever go down in this society and even the most rock ribbed GOP would not dare to vote for it. This is asking for the vengeance dynamic of Bolshevik vs. Menshevik.
