When the various proposed high speed rail projects the current administration is pressing (you know in the stimulus bill?) progress are you going to be so vehemently against eminent domain for their construction? Are they also considered ‘substantial national interest’ even to those in other states who will NEVER use them? Also consider these will not be constructed below ground so there is a high probability they will have to ‘look out their window and see some monstrosity like that’.
in speaking of the use of eminent domain you want to compare a high speed rail project which will benefit the citizens of this country who will ride the new transportation with a project owned by canadian oil interests which will only enrich the oil industry while polluting the USA
