[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]sad to say it, but the concept of eminent domain has been expanded in recent years to allow things that you can't possibly think are reasonable. it is not outrageous, after some of these rulings to imagine a gov't action that says a school is more of a "greater good" than is a country club and seize the land under that rationale. in a well publicized case, a home was seized in order for a town to allow private developers to build commercial buildings (stores, etc.) in order to get the tax revenue from those new businesses. many thought it was an overreaching of eminent domain - but it was upheld.
