"and for the purpose of benefiting the general public and not merely for the purpose of advancing the economic
interest of private parties to be given ownership or use of the property taken.
"

This needs to be expanded on as it is the cause of most abuse.

It might be noted that corporations are public.

Crumbs, that's all this is. I don't see anything in here that prohibits government from doing what it already does. "...advancing the economic interest of private parties " has already been defined by SCOTUS and time and again SCOTUS has decided for us that though private parties *might* benefit economically, the greater good will be served.

Speaking of the Constitution, I'm still waiting on an Executive Order regarding the illegals in this country. Instead, we get crumbs.
