You all seem to gloss over the fact they pay you very well. Plus if you don't like how much they pay you, you can take them to court. My parents have gone through eminent domain proceedings before, they would have made out pretty good had someone not raped the gov't on the price of his land.
That doesn't mean I agree with the ruling, I definitely do not but I don't think its nearly as bad as all you seem to think it is. Of course start looking at it in conjunction with the patriot act, 18 U.S.C. Section 2257, and even the war in Iraq and things look a little grimer.
