Do you really believe they were "justly" compensated? And that the government has the right to take your property away so that it can be "open land?"
If it was fair market then yes. You cant pick and chose which amendments you want to obey. If you agree with the 1rst amendment then you have to tolerate the 5th. Otherwise start your own country.
There's no such thing as a Forced Sale being Fair Market.
Obviously you've never owned real estate in your entire life.
The fair market value is the price at which the property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or to sell and both having reasonable knowledge of relevant facts.
