I know you qualify it by saying "I disagree strongly with the use of ED to seize property". You wind up saying it's better to give it to private people than to state people.

No, I was saying that, in the case of Conn, the outcome might be better from a Societal perspective and with compensation to the victims but still a bad action. Let's just say it is the better of two very bad actions on the part of a Gov't - Which, IMO, it is. No justification just a comparison.
