No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation
just compensation is fair market value
You are right, in post number 6 I used the word "take" when describing eminent domain, that was a poor choice of words on my part. I should have said "purchase" instead.
The point I was trying to make was, if a person owned ten acres, and the government or utility needed only two acres for their project, they would only purchase the two acres and not the entire ten acres.
