Well, if that has been the only way it ever has gotten done, I find it diifficult to then give credence to your assertion that "they have no business doing it that way".
Do you realize the absurdity that woulod result with a pipeline company having to essentially gerrymander the route all over, likely with land purchase options spread a million different ways, to try to build a pipeline to carry the lifeblood of our industry ? Of the heat in virtually every home ?
Your position lacks both basic reality and logic. Give it w awhack though, I am curious as to how you think it gets done then. Any pipeline, Anywhere.
I do not care.It is a private company wanting land for non-public utility use and non highway/road use.They should never be allowed the use of eminent domain period.If they want a piece of property bad enough then they can pay the owner what he or she wants even if that owner wants above so called fair market value or find someone else who will sell to them.Private property rights are more important than some oil company wanting to build a pipeline all the way across the country so they can export it and American property rights are definitely more important than some foreign owned company's desire to build a pipeline.
