I believe it is an abuse of eminent domain to use it for private businesses. It should only be used for public purposes.
Why did they not touch on the fact that in Kelo, the developer backed out post demolition of the houses- essentially leaving an empty lot in its wake?
It is important to recognize the difference between eminent domain and CRONY eminent domain. Eminent domain is government taking for public use. Crony eminent domain is government stealing one persons property to give to another. Justice Thomas said, "Defying this understanding, the court replaces the public use clause with the public purpose"
Wow. This sounds like a defense of involuntary heirarchy. Make it look pretty and people will believe it, amirite?
Clarence Thomas is the only one who is nearly completely reliable to stick to the Constitution.
Kelo was wrong
