Weren't you addressing taxes though? I mean, I agree it's frightening that the government can simply buy your house and tell you to get lost so they can build a school/highway/airport but that's not relevant to taxation.

Yes we were but in relation to that I responded that the government is not justified in taking away property because of tax avoidance and that's where the fifth amendment comes in ... 

Just because businesses found a loophole doesn't mean it's the government's right to seize their assets ...

Tax avoidance / evasion is a criminal offense. This is not the same as exploiting a loophole, which is just smart. In tax evasion, assets can and will be seized legally.
