Hawaii legislature recently iirc (not sure exact date) passed legislation allowing for the Govt to 'forcibly purchase' previously owned private property if the property had been affected by a Natural disaster etc etc ...

Well that's very fucked. Why even keep Hawaii as our 50th then if they're just going to do whatever the hell they want to do.

Seems like that would violate the constitution somehow.

Wow, that's really fucked up. I'm sure the insurance companies love this becuase it eliminates a payout .

Yeah - the govt kinda did the same thing in christchurch after the 2011 earthquake (had an automatic 80% of Govt valuation buyout of any red zoned residential property - entire suburbs no longer exist and are left as 'grass land to be naturally reclaimed' - if anyone refused to sell and wanted to rebuild in a red zoned area - the city council stopped maintaining power/ water and sewerage infrastructure and cut it out of the city system - so the property was literally unlivable.
