The landowners will not die without a small sliver of their land, either. And one option benefits a lot more people than the other.

- s1artibartfast 2y agoLike I said above, I think there needs to be a extremely compelling need to use eminent domain. I dont think the government should be engaging in minor utilitarian optimization. That is to say, there should be an very high threshold to use government power even if the the cost to the individual is quite small. Where the government has trump cards which override individual rights and freedoms, they should be used rarely and out of necessity.
