A pipeline isn’t the same thing as a casino, a golf course, or other BS government subsidized project that Trump has tried to impose on several occasions.

I would rather have the keystone pipeline stopped dead than to have private property taken against the owners will. Property rights are just that, rights. It should never be taken, regardless of the amount of compensation offered.

I suppose you know about Eminent domain used by the Bush family to acquire the Texas Ranger’s Stadium.

Private use is private use...besides Cruz was pro-ED with just compensation before he was against it.

You sure as heck aren’t going to build a border wall without it either.

If you lived in a dying town with 60% unemployment, a bankrupt city government, and someone was willing to open a business that would provide thousands of jobs, you might feel differently. I sympathize with both sides of the argument.
