Our reluctant legislature is making overtures about finally protecting us from improper – and unconstitutional – applications of eminent domain. Protecting private property should have been the first thing they undertook this biennium. The lag-time suggests that their motivations now are largely political and that many still buy into this utilitarian/corporate welfare argument about economic development and the so-called "greater good."
In short: you and your corporate cronies had better keep your grubby mits off of our property.
