I would first like to see where eminent has been used, when running a pipeline you don’t buy the land you pay for a right of way.

Nebraska has tons of pipelines. Are they above ground? Is Keystone to be above ground. I assumed they were buried.

To hear a bunch of suburban or city conservatives talk about this as though - so what, is a sad state of affairs.

I happen to be a land owner, and right of way means that the land owner loses the right of use of said right of way and land. To lose land by right of way is not insignificant and means that access be permanently provided and that property value declines and that use of that land is lost. Crops can not be planted, structures are disallowed as are roads and who wants to live next to major pipeline? Yeah NIMBY means something if it is in your back yard.

Any taking of private property by private enterprise is in direct opposition to property rights. In my view it is non-negotiable, only unless it can be proven to benefit the greater good and not just private pockets and crooked politicians, and then I would still fight it unless landowners were paid properly, but they are not.
