I owe you an apology. I have you confused with another poster. I am very sorry for that. That doesn’t make me a coward or a liar, however. Well not intentionally.
As for the rest, I want to actually see what may be condemned. How do you condemn a functioning farm, for instance? We’re losing enough family owned farms as it is, without this happening. The article says rural land, so I’m thinking farms and small communities. You know, the bumpkins with zero clout. I think I know what condemn and blight means.
I’ve lived in neighborhoods that deserved to be condemned for being a blight. I’m not having a lot of luck tracing the proposed route of this super hwy, not to be confused with your average interstate, so I don’t know how many people will be negatively impacted.
Thanks. Glad we could clear that up.

The city, state, whatever, condemns it.

Yes, farmland. Would it be better to build a road thru a crowded city? Push out tens of thousands instead of dozens? Spend tens of billions on more expensive land?
