The judicial system tried to escape their obligation by tasking congress with failure for defining eminent domain. That was a judicial failure.
Now, congress fails to correct. That is a congressional failure.
The executive branch should support Kelo reform by use of a public posting of use:
Who initiated eminent domain
When
Why
Succeed Fail
What public use was made of the property.

The funny thing about Kelo is the How did the community become a blight in the first place.
First, New London convenced many of the residences that they should conceed or have eminent domain proceedings brought against them and receive less for their property. Next the city bulldozed the porperties that they had gained control of then classifice the remainder a blight.
If the average property owner did something like that, they would have been cited for code violations.
