Meddle: It's clear you used the term "eminent domain" without understanding it's meaning. If a government entity can legally exercise it ability to condemn private property it must pay the owner the value of the property [[and in MI an amount in excess of the value.)

Also, there's no such government ability to confiscate one's property under "National Security Grounds" and if there were the govt would still have to pay for it.

To condemn private property a governmental entity may only do so for legitimate public purposes. No such public purpose exists in the case of the bridge, and if there were, the govt would still have to pay for it.
