eminent domain allows government to seize private property if it is for the good of the public. For example they are able to take a block of houses inorder to build a school or to build hospital. I believe that it is unfair in the first place to take private property even if it does benefit the public. Many people think it is just but it hasn't happened to them and probably never will which is why most don't think twice about it. Now the gov't is taking private property in order to get more tax money, which I believe is not okay and is not within the gov'ts power. It is ridiculous to think that this okay and it should be stopped.

i think the government is abusing their right with eminent domain. i also think it is unfair. the owner should say be able to say yes or no then the government decide on a different opportunity.
ReplyDeletei agree with you that many people think it is just because it has never happened to them, but if it were they would be just as mad as everyone else.
