Don’t encourage heavy handedness by the government, instead push for a better system of checks and balances.

That's not heavy handedness, it's calling a hyper-rich entity on its greedy, obvious bullshit. It'd be a welcome lesson to all to all such organizations.

I'd also say such eminent domain actions would be a reasonable part of checks and balances: no one would under-represent the value of their property, at least not as much as Apple has, if they invited that kind of risk.

I think it was sarcasm to prove a point. If the government did it, it would be outrage, but the reverse, and it's just business being "efficient".
