Better hope they're interested in selling then.

ep, most PT board patriots didn't like ED
Depends on what it’s for. Most of the discussion around ED usually centered on KELO, where the government forced the sale of a run-down neighborhood to give it to a private developer to build an office park. The reasons justified were “economic development”. So, let’s run down the ED “ok” reasons:
National defense
Transportation infrastructure (assuming it’s a worthwhile improvement and not just a giveaway to a casino)
To dam a river for hydroelectric power generation
Dredge waterways or build levees for flood protection
Economic development certainly is not a good enough reason.
All of this is a moot point because the federal government had already acquired a right of way to the border property decades ago, so no ED is necessary to build the wall.

No offense, but there are still court cases pending from ED condemnations from several years ago
And how do you think the federal government "acquired" that right of way, anyway?

And ED to build a border wall seems like a completely justified use of that power.

quote:Roads? Yes.
You should not seize private land for private development just to increase you tax revenues. For the public good it’s cool. We are not going to build an interstate because Zeke wants to keep the family farm?
Parks? Probably not. Buy it on the market.
Shopping mall? Definitely not.
Border Wall? NO. There is not a "need" for it. There are other options for securing the border.

That's really not what I questioned, Robert

True, they do not have a right of way along the Rio Grande, yet. I do, however, believe it is a worthwhile use of the power.
Posted on 2/16/19 at 8:49 pm to JuiceTerry
Pretty sure they got the right of way through ED. The right of way they still need in Texas will likely be accomplished the same way. Is there some kind of gotcha you’re trying to get here?

No, brah
Just wondering about the widespread support for governmental land seizure all the sudden
I don't care for it when the reasons behind it are really dubious

Do the feds have easement rights along international borders?
If so, on what grounds will they sue?

Having an easement along an international border seems common sense. I don’t understand why they didn’t have one already so long as raparian owners were still permitted access to the Rio Grande’s water.

But a perfectly justified reason for doing so, and possibly the MOST justifiable reason possible.
