    I’m sure the developers offered “fair compensation”, you need to demand lot before fucking up the highway design is more economical than meeting their offer.

      In the US, the government provides compensation, not developers, and they pay fair market value as determined by local appraisal districts.

        The main difference here seems to be that the US can compell property owners to accept what they determine is a fair market rate, but another poster informed me that in some cases the chinese can compell people to sell too.
