My point is, like Roe V. Wade, the recent SCOTUS decision IS the law of the land right now and any local laws trying to supersede that will get challenged and will probably get struck down until SCOTUS changes.

So, it means that at the moment, it's legal for developers to do this.

However, if ther eis a vote to change the constitution for this purpose, it'll probably pass with flying colors as both side of the aisle realized that the decision is pissing off people from both sides. I know it'd be a lengthy process, but it'll pass.

The really sick part is that even IF a state has and passes private to private eminent domain takings, a connected to local officials WILL go to a desired property owner and make threats.

The developer will just go up and say either you sell or we will take and force you to sell. You might win in the end but do you have the money to pay for lawyers? You will not be able to sell to anyone else but to me because your title will be clouded.

It will be litigation intimidation.
