No, but we all know if you have something the gov't thinks they should
control for the 'general good of the people', they will find a way to
get it. At least here they usually compensate people to some extent
rather than just seize it..

You hate that if it's your property but if one person can stop
something that will benefit the public is that such a good thing?
Highways would never get built, or pipelines, electrical grids.. etc..
