Why were the homeowners in new london fighting for private property rights?

The correct answer is the following.

Homeowners in New London were fighting for private property rights because the government had given authorization to a private company to take another private property if it were for public benefit. The original private owner should be compensated for the property.

We are referring to the Kelo v. the City of New London, Connecticut case of 2005. The Supreme Court of The United States decided that under the Taking Clause of the 5th Amendmnet, if a community benefited from economic growth, the private redevelopment was appropriated.

one of the major compromises in the constitutional convention was between the small states and big states. the small states wanted each state to have the same number of representatives in congress. the big states wanted representation based on population.

b) they want the land taken away from the wealthy landowners and given to peasants.
