^ Very well put.
What is very disheartening is that some of the people I helped get into office are chasing the money trail and ignoring their/our "neighbor" in doing so. There is NOT a federal mandate to do this nor is there a federal law that requires this. Any and every state can stop this easily by not granting permits or simply enforcing "No Eminent Domain for Private Gain". Hold your state accountable. Funny how money makes the true person come out in some people.......and I will not forget at the voting booth!
