Seems entirely fine. The land, the standard of living, all of this has value because of others doing a lot of work to keep it so. Once you’ve bought something you can’t free ride on the rest of society doing economically useful work. Eminent domain exists as a concept because we recognize this fact.

The state needs to do things in order for its residents to prosper and you can’t nail-house these things to oblivion. Well, you can, but others will disagree.
