It would be nice it if could work out that way. However, some people are like that guy in the movie UP.
Those cases are rare and it is easy to avoid one house like that. Besides, he might be more keen on moving when he sees his neighborhood destoyed.
They indeed did use eminent domain, but for the simple reason that they had purchased all of the available land in the area and had extended the airport to the back door of the neighborhoods. Now most of the eminent domain land is vacant and was simply purchased to allow the residents to move away from the noise and prevent the loss of their property value due to having warehouses and fly-overs in the near vicinity.
True, but most projects wont start until they are sure about the availability of the land.
Then maybe these projects should be planned better beforehand to avoid problems like grumpy old men.
What do you consider FDR's gravest mistakes?

So they were forced to leave their property so that they could leave their property for their own benefit. Lol, that's a quirky explanation. They knew what was coming, they could have moved if they wanted to. I can understand the government compensating these people since they wouldn't have been able to leave without losing a ton of money, but forcing them to leave? I can't justify that.
They were not "forced," there are those who still live in the areas. Lone houses that did not want to move. But they will not get the same deal the others got in the beginning if they should now choose to move. They will only receive market value.
Then that's not an example of eminent domain. Eminent domain is when the government forces someone to leave and pays them what they consider fair. It's a lopsided deal. However, what you described just sounds like fair compensation. It seems like a plan I would have supported. In effect it was like paying for the noise pollution.
I am aware of what eminent domain is and the thing is that these people "will" eventually be forced to move, the hold-outs I mean, but the way the government and company went about it, I feel was a very fair process.
These remaining residents are on the edges of the properties and UPS has not yet had use for it. But they are ever building new warehouses and when they do reach the areas where these people are, they will be forced out.
I see then, well it's that which I don't agree with. They should just be able to get people to leave with an offer (voluntarily) or they should find a new place to build the warehouse.
I can see both sides of this argument but in the end I suppose it all comes down to the rights of the individual versus the people as a whole, which supercedes? I admit I do not know the answer.
The people as a whole have no right to the land that the individual owns. If the people want control, then the people can buy it from the individual.
I would agree if an "individual" ever truly owned land. In my opinion, as long as there is a property tax on land and vehicles, we merely rent from the government.

his greatest hurt inflicted on this nation was creating a lapdog judiciary that allowed him and his party to completely disregard the limited nature of a federal government intended by the founders. He is most responsible for the out of control government and massive taxes and deficits we have today
