Eminent domain is costly and people fight it in court all the time. Also, do we really want the precedent of the state seizing the property of a private individual and selling it to another because the state doesn’t like how you’re using it?

I think vacancy taxes are a better solution, for housing and retail.

I want good soil so people can grow things. The world doesn't need a new strip mall. However we get there would be great.
