#1  Eminent domain is how most roads, schools, libraries, and other public works are built

Utter tripe/BS. Most land for public projects is obtained by mutually agreeable sale. Condemnation is the last resort and an indication of either 1) a seller looking for way above appraised value or 2) a Gov't org trying to lowball. Independent appraisals are usually accepted by courts to stop either from stalling a necessary project. In my 27 years building public projects - I have NEVER had to take property by eminent domain
