The public good not only outweighs private interests, but the concept of the "private" citizens, as though they are opposed to "public" citizens, is repugnant. Nothing rubs me worse than people that think they have no obligation to to society or their fellow man. Guess what? A court house infinately more important than the Kid's Gap that would occupy the space of the strip mall. I'm sure the owner gets paid, though not as much as if some trend store occupied the lot. I'll shed a tear for him when he starts to have trouble feeding his family because the government called on him to do his part.
