With that caveat, we all agree that eminent domain should be permitted when in the public interest, but the difficulty is in distinguishing public from private interests, right? From an economic perspective, why worry about this distinction? The minority's interests are protected by the requirement of compensation. (We all know that the compensation paid is usually a little low, but that's a problem about implementation, not principle.) So eminent domain is like efficient breach, no?

There is no just compensation for the home I've raised my family in. I want the home. I want to have it for my kids to come back to. I want their kids to see where they were raised.
Economics be damned.
