Its like stealing. When the government doesn't bother to ask our permission as to whether they can do something on OUR land, that's trespassing pure and simple. Its no more right when your land is invaded under color of official authority than it is if unknown individuals enter your property without asking you first if its OK. Private means exactly that - PRIVATE.

Apparently you don't understand easements. You can look them up when you buy the property in the first place, if you don't like it, you don't have to buy the property. But it is silly to say that your right to your property is completely unfettered, no matter what, and there can be no pipes running under it, etc without your permission. This essentially puts us back to the stone age. No more running water, no more flush toilets, no more electricity, etc.

Using this definition, I suppose you think I have the right to launch a rocket at a plane if it is to fly over my property without my permission?
