I dunno. I'm kinda, maybe, starting to feel that this one is very unlike the slavery reparations crap.
(Disclosure: My dad had this done to him 65 years ago on his go-for-broke, life-investment, massive piece of land, which he was already developing and platting lots on. The highway ramps it was taken for by the state weren't ever built. Ten or so years later, when the state decided it no longer needed the land, the state sold it in a sweetheart deal for the same amount they paid my dad for it years before, without coming to him first- because it was previously his. That would have been some serious generational wealth in my pocket had he succeeded.)
