Why don't you take your inflated ego and total misunderstanding of Eminnant Domain. We know you are a "really big real estate magnate." We really aren't the Donald Trump types, so I guess we just can't follow your incredible "logic".

Sorry...I guess I just put Real Estate salespeople in their own category of intelligensia....about third grade level.

Once again, you've misconstrued what I've said

NEVER ONCE DID I DEFEND EMINENT DOMAIN, so I don't know where the idea that I was came into play.

Clearly, I was misinterpreted.

Eminent Domain is when the government tells someone, they want their property, they pay them what they think it's worth, and they take it by fiat.

And it is unjustifiable in any circumstances, even to build a freeway.

If you want someone's land, you should pay them what they'll take for it, and if you can't do that, find a way to build what you wanna build while leaving the persons property intact.
