The takings clause of the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution allows the government to take specific resources (usually but not always land) away from private owners for "public use" upon the payment of "just compensation." The clause recognizes the existence and importance of private ownership, but allows the government to "condemn" and take specific private resources for money under the power called eminent domain.
