We just haven't forgotten our history,allowing any government department to forcibly take over someone's property is not in our sikie.

When property is regulated and taxed or there's something like eminent domain, this can happen anywhere. I don't think we'd want something clumsy like making people homeless in order to do it, though.

OK, that's a different view than in the USA in which it's virtually impossible for any private real estate to be untaxed. I guess you're suggesting that eminent domain isn't a thing either?

Well if there are devils in details, I hope this gets worked out in future to the best thing possible to help homeless and mitigate blight along with it. And the same thing in the currently miserable land of the ewe essay.

In a more liberal global system, maybe there could even be treaties about this?
