That's mine!

In June 2005 the Supreme Court split five-four on a decision of eminent domain. The majority sided with the cities and it was ruled that government officials can use the power of eminent domain to condemn homes for private development. This development is all in hopes to boost the local economy.
It has long been a duty of the government to promote economic development and eminent domain is the next step on many cities' economic plans. The problem is growing throghout the nation especially in rural areas. Cities are expanding into farm land, but the owners of this land do not want to sell their land that has been in their families for many years. Many people to not feel that any amount of money can make up for the loss of thier land.
The developers that say they are working towards econmic development seem to forget that every time they take land away from someone the economy is decreasing. There are many people in rural communities that are completley losing thier livelihoods to these expanding cities. Has the agricultural economic development that this country was built upon been completley forgotten? How will the newly expanded cities and companies survive when there is a shortage of food in this country?
