Questions Spawned From Supreme Court Ruling

[James Boston]

I didn't want to hijack the other thread, but the Supreme Court's idiotic ruling spawned a few questions.

1) What are your thought's on Zee's suggestion that it be mandatory that property taken in this fashion be paid for at well above appraisal value, to ensure it only be done in the most necessary cases?

2) What if it's farm land? Should the future cash flow of the crops be compensated for?

3) What is the best approach to a situation where a stubborn minority is preventing a lucrative private venture that could benefit many? This question is especially interesting to me because I see this dilemma coming in the next few years where I live.
