A once benifical law used to aquire lands from owners at market value who refuse to sell for the use of public goods and servaces. i.e. railroads, roads, powerlines, parks. Was used only in extreme cases when the expence to goverment would be far to high i.e. a road is already built with one house in the way of expantion. Due to a recent appalling ruling by the supreem courts contary to the U.S. constution and the creation of De Jure Naturae et Gentium it now allows for city corts to STEAL!! land from private owners for private use and gain i.e. taking houses and farms for malls factories for less than market price.
"Go ahead and try to claim eminent domain on my residence for private gain see what happens you'll need more than a swat team to get me out"
