Fuck, I’m not against eminent domain for real public improvement purposes,

Further, I think it is important to maintain the principle that there is no such thing as absolute property right, and that private property rights are granted to fulfill public purposes. As I think you recognize in most other cases, opposition to eminent domain as such is regressive NIMBYism of the Louise Day Hicks school, and ought not be encouraged.

Uh, yeah, like I said.
