3 Arguments Eminent Domain not for Sale in Legislation

Who: Missouri Farm Bureau

What reasons does the Farm Bureau give for eminent domain not being for sale in Missouri?

  • Eminent domain isn’t for projects that enrich the owner, that’s not a public benefit
  • There is no public benefit for the flow of goods or things through a state
  • An eminent domain project that has no clear public benefit but pays local governments to support local public use projects is nothing more than corruption
