An Amendment is not needed.. Both Congress & the Executive are sworn to obey the Constitution. --
Either branch could issue a 'finding' that public takings for private gain are against basic Constitutional principles that protect individual human rights.

They could urge/authorize that the Justice Dept make available public defenders to citizens facing such infringements by state or local authorities who misuse their power.

Have you forgotten the Schiavo case so soon? There is only one branch of government. That's why you get this ruling. You think you would get this if the Schiavo killing had been stopped despite their "rulings"?

I fail to see any connection between Schiavo and your proposed Amendment.

And the Supreme Court rules against them and they quietly fade away. Get it now?
