It clearly states "just compensation". Where can you go from there?

You seem to be stuck on those two words, to the exclusion of the many thousands before and after in the founding documents and historical records of the United States.

Yes it says "just compensation." But it doesn’t say for private use, it says for public use.

Lets put it another way. You have a home. Some developer comes to you and says, “I will give you fair market value for your house.” You say, ‘no thank you.’ Obviously ‘fair market value’ to you wasn’t enough to leave your home. Under this new ruling rather then giving you more money for your home he can take it from you at ‘fair market value’ or his price.

When you no longer have control over your property, the property is no longer yours it is societies. Is that a capitalist state or a socialist state, I ask you?
