I think it’s at least interesting how many of the same people who bristle at eminent domain enthusiastically support megaprojects like nationwide high-speed rail. Not to say private manufacture is equivalent to public works, but I wonder how much the distinction matters to the displaced.
Azalia King was the last holdout preventing the construction of a Micron "megafab." Onondaga County authorities threatened to use eminent domain to take her home away by force.

Sort of a telling misread of the social dynamics at play here. The kids I knew in HS who most resembled these DOGE people were smart and politically engaged. They weren’t shoving nerds into lockers, they were running cross country and making “god emperor trump” memes with plausible deniability.
The worst people you went to high school with are now running our government. They're the people who cheated on tests, bullied the smaller kids, stole stuff from lockers and lied about other students behind their backs. They grew up, stayed awful and became MAGA.
