Here is another link from the same takings blog.

The Penn Central case took "air rights" from PC investors and gave then to the citizens of NYC. SCOTUS decided it was not severe enough to constitute a taking.

Our case is that the 3rd A. gives to taxpayers what should go to shareholders. And the harm needs to be severe enough to constitute a taking.
