- These are 18 of the most stubborn homeowners in the world!

8. Narita, Japan Farmers
In Narita, Japan, a collection of farmers took umbrage to the fact that their lands happened to coincide with the exact place that the government wanted to construct an airport. Tempers flared and tensions reached an all-time high, resulting in the farmer’s attacking workers, ultimately resulting in several deaths. To this day, an uneasy truce exists around the airport.
7. Guangzhou, China Apartments
Sometimes, though rarely, the indomitable will of those who refuse to sell actually overcomes the wheel of progress. This building in Guangzhou exasperated the construction company with their stubbornness so much that the highway was simply constructed around the building. Though the view is doubtless marred from how it used to be, at least the residents of this building can say they still have their home.
6. Speighalter’s Jewelry Store
Though many of the world’s most famous home holdouts reside in China, occasionally even cheery old England will find a stalwart defender of property. Speighalter’s Jewelry Store in London has refused to sell its prime location for over 100 years and is now surrounded on all sides by the Wickham’s Department Store.
5. A Chinese Farmer
Another day, another major Chinese highway planned to go right through someone’s farmland. Ye Tan and his wife, however, had other plans. They eventually held out and the road was constructed around their home in one of the few examples of a home holdout going well for those who live within. Today the road circles around their meager farm and the couple have a grim satisfaction from their accomplishment.
4. Chongqing, China
Sometimes the owners of homes on prime property are less concerned about their house and more concerned with their wallet, such as this home in Chongqing. The owner, Yang Wu, had no problem selling his home - but he wanted more money! In the end, he only received a modest sum and the house was ultimately demolished.
3. Yichang, China
In a brazen attempt to get a Chinese man to move out of his home, which sits on prime real estate in Yichang, a construction company built up the land around his home, effectively making his house resided in a hole in the ground. The water and electricity was eventually cut off to his home and he temporarily moved away. His resilience, however, proved strong and he moved back in shortly after.
2. The “Nail Grave”
Sometimes, the property in question doesn’t even have a house built on it, like this plot of land in Japan. Instead, the owner of the land has family buried here, and felt that the selling of the land would be a desecration to their memory. This plot was dubbed the “nail grave.”
1. Yonjia Apartment Building
In 2015, an apartment building in Yonjia, China refused to sell out to a company that hoped to build a road right through their home. The resilient property owners were steadfast, however, and the city spent $15 million dollars to construct a four-lane road around their building. Way to stick it to the man! - Zábava
Thanks for the red circle on the thumbnail. Wouldn't have noticed it without.
Lol IKR
+BadlyDrawnFrog I know right!!

no shit. the whole channel is a clickbait tactic.

LOL the circle is not an annotation and you cant turn it off
My parents own land in a little village in Mexico. The government was planning on paying people $10,000 USD for their houses to build a highway but everyone in the village put money towards lawyers and they got the houses up to $100,000 to $250,000 depending on size and location. The Mexican government agreed but ran out of money after only purchasing about 12 houses. The project was abandoned and the houses were left abandoned and the people moved back in after buying their houses for $10,000.
Lol, what a burn! Now that's what we call government-efficiency
+Sulfen LOL thats unreal :D
Thumbs Up 😂🙏🏻🤘🏻
Yeah
Oh I remember hearing about that; but I didn't know the resolution of the problem. Wasn't t the one where the company that were going to build the road was a friend of the president; and that was why, they were making so many new roads?
They are not resisting development of city, they are holding their own... RESPECT THEM
Om Jaiswal nope, they just purely greedy. Usually buyer will offer them a same size of land, if exist the government regulation on size of land area, they get compensation on that too. Besides it, they will receive cash which is much more than enough to build a new house. If the house is more than 1 floor, for each floor will be sum up in area and seller will compensate the same size of appartment.
For example, if an owner has 240 square meters 3-stories house, government will offer 120 square meters, then another 120 meters and the first floor will be in cash, which is more than enough for owner to build a brand new house. He also can get 4 apartments (each apartment is 120 square meters), the most important is that we don’t have property tax... I can’t recall any countries has better policy.
Think it is unfair to call them stubborn, it is up to them to keep their own home or not!
there is no place like home.......
yeah
Thank you!
+Ramiro Hernandez i feel you
Ha no place like home..!! That is funny..
+Ramiro Hernandez runescape? construction?
Homeowner rights in China are exceptionally good. I am Chinese American. My parents illegally left China 50 years ago, but last year, we received a letter from the Chinese government informing us that the farm we had in China is to be sold and that we are entitled to the money. My parents had written off that property decades ago, but the government never took the land.
+sexyloser
They do all the paperworks to prevent future arguments.
But the real problem is, they never pay enough for the land.
Landowners are forced to sell off their homes and farmlands for a very low price, not enough for them to build or buy a new house.
Also consider most of them live by farming, taking away their land means taking away their job FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIFE, they are sure to be forced away from home cities to make their living after that.
Siloseea Irenicus I can see that. It sucks for the people living in China, but I thought it was a nice gesture that the government still honored our ownership of that land despite my parents illegally leaving China.
@@siloseeairenicus5889that’s not true. Taking relocation in the cities, for example, the government always pays enough money to purchase 3 to 4 apartments for the one you had. However, the location is usually further away from downtown.
They were absolutely right to stand up and try to save their homes
Our house , in the middle of the street , our house!
Road House!-KICK!-Road House.
Haha... great song reference.
Some foldgers coffee sounds pretty good
That's madness lol
Literally lol
The government is supposed to serve the people not the corporations.
+James Doble All the people received offers for their property that is often 2x or more than what its worth. Only stupid people refuse millions.
most are china what do you expect
Lol
+Hawc that house or part of land may have a meaning for them. they have the right to refuse even billions. its their apartmens/lands/farms/etc
+James Doble the government is serving the people by building highways for them.. so they should be stopped by one moronic homeowner? get real..
not stubborn at all. whats theirs is theirs damn right they should fight for it.
Your right! That's what I am thinking throughout the video!!!
*yo're or you are
you're. that is how it's wrote
Sorry the temptation was too great.
And you know in some cases especially in China they weren't offered enough to get a new home else where.
+taitaylor86 *written not wrote, lol correct your own English first.
Its the memories that these pepole are fiercely defending...
Don't lose future for past
THEY WERENT STUBBURN. home is home. They loved their homes.
No, you're half right, they weren't stubborn, they were/are stupid, especially for not taking the money some were offered.
You are fucking wrong. Theyre selfish. Imagining trying to get to work. Only to realize the fucking road is blocked by a stubborn selfish ass. And any other method of travel is useless. Veichles? The home is blocking. Walking? Too late. See how it creates problems?
I don’t understand why when we destroy something created by man we call it vandalism, but when we destroy something by nature we call it progress.Ed Begley Jr.
So true, I totally agree.
+Alan Cortez Well said
+Alan Cortez Salut!!!!
+Alan Cortez well put. Kinda got me thinking.
oh, your deep philosophy has caused to me to defecate.
If they want to force me to move in the name of progress, then they will provide a brand new house, Pay for my moving costs, and they will have to pay up a hefty sum of money. Otherwise, they can go shove it.
+dragnridr05 up their sticky buttholes. There you go, i ended the phrase that came after "shove it"for ya, xD
imminent domain is a powerful force in the USA. you can talk all the trash you want to, but when they want your property here. you will be moving on, trust and believe. before, anyone start talking trash. check with your government entity in your area. then say something, at least you will know what you are talking about.
Or they can jail you and demolish your house.
where i live they are not allowed to even remove a stone for a privet owned lawn without the written consent of the owner and there is a law stated that they need to pay x amount per y amount of yards they wanna take away from the owners property
these 2 to 3 million dollar offers cover all of your requests
I'm on the side of he homeowners.
Don't give up! Don't ever give up!
They are just more obvious with their tactics in China. In Canada I know a family that owns a building that developers want to buy. They don't want to sell but instead want to renovate it. All of their applications for renos to the city were denied. So now the place is in big need of maintenance...which they are not allowed to do. Next the city sends inspectors to come in and write up all the things wrong with the building...making its value plunge. The developers still have an offer to buy...but now at a fraction of market value.
everywhere governments are corrupt unfortunately it is Cash Rules Everything Around Me.
Home owners have a right. God bless them for standing their ground........
The majority of the owners in this video are in their right to stand fast to what they worked for all their life. Tirany no longer holds the whip. This is a modern world where owning a property is worth the sweat. Therefore, every citizen's dream result must be respected!
Agreed, however the local police force told the local homeless population that I have no right to live here. I have been mugged 3 times on my street and my wife once. The police told us to stop harassing the homeless people. I lost a kidney. peace
No one would get my home, I'd fight till death.
Yeah, say that if you did own your own house and were offered 3 mill. You'd be a stupid fool to stay.
Yeah. Even if somebody offered you 2 Billion Dollars youd still reject cause "FIGHT TILL DEATH RESLIANCE SHIT"
@@constellious its his land, he has the right
I truly believe that owner's of these houses have the right to not sell their house if they don't want too . I'd never sell my house if I've got a lot of memories there and if I had family buried on the property , I'd never sell my property ! I say two thumbs up for all those people who didn't wanna sell their property , way to go. lol
My parents and I, along with 2000 other families, were forced to move from our homes, so that they could be demolished for a new residential development. We weren't given anywhere near a decent compensation. My parents were leaseholders, but they weren't given anywhere near market value for their home and now we both live in rented properties which have no character or soul. Everyone who was forced to move is unhappy now. We had a wonderful neighbourhood, but now we are all miserable.
That's so sad! Where do you live?
Hannah Morris Thank you Hannah, we're in London, UK
nikki aviv This was just to make a new town to replace the one where we lived, it was a wonderful, vibrant, multi-ethnic community, and everyone had something to share... nothing to do with students or new migrants this time :(
You have my sympathies. Even if they force people out of their homes, those people should at least be given enough money to get a decent home. Your family and the others deserve so much more and it sickens me to think the government cares so little about its people.
Keva the Half-Kestora Thank you, so much :)
I do not think the goverment has the right to force people to move out of their homes.
Why should they? Its their land.
wrong imminent domain. government can do anything
If the government can't take your land, then be prepared for them to take more money. When the government has to waste millions of dollars because it can't get the land it wants, that money comes out of YOUR pocket.
@@joefolden9189 you shoot them then, problem solved
*their* is concept of capitalism, not for communism. china isn't capitalistic.
Canton, Mississippi. Eminent Domain was used to steal thousands of acres of farmland at low price-per-acre. It was sold to developers who leased it to Nissan to build an automobile manufacturing plant. It provided jobs, but the amount of money generated by the now-commercial acres made many overnight millionaires. Eminent domain is almost always an abuse of power that is always connected to money.
always wise one
Well said
Yup. I was down there when the built that plant. People were soooo mad.
Sad thing its foriegn owned makes one wonder how a outside busi ess besides money worms there way to dishonestly make us citizens homeless
If I were the owner of the house with the fast lane or high way outside , I would built a check point private boundary , when people pass by they would pay before they exit the property ..
+John Smith What an amazing idea! Yes, this would be a great revenue for the homeowner.
How is telling a multi billion pound company and or local government to piss off being "stubborn"?
it's stubborn in the sense of mathematics , that they are willing to give you more money than your property is worth in exchange for the space. Logically , you could easily buy a better house in a better location with the money you'll receive. But you would be considered "STUBBORN" to not accept the deal. This is only in the case of the home owners simply wanting to keep their house. I think the ones who had family burried or the indian artifacts are not stubborn at all.
+Themaxleydog 100% agree
+Themaxleydog exactly gg
+Themaxleydog
What is the difference between buried artifacts, family buried there, or just somewhere you spent your entire life? What if your parents lived there and their parents before them?
The value of something is based on what it is worth to the highest bidder. If I value my house at 10x's what everyone else in the world does then it is worth that because I am willing to pay that much for it.
It is odd that you can accept sentimental value in the form of Indian artifacts and graves but not that of a person who likes what he has and wants to keep it.
I collect antique rifles and glass. Sometimes I will put dozens if not a hundred hours into a worm eaten rifle to make it look perfect and come out with almost the same money spent when I could have just bought a rifle in comparable shape for $2-300 more. Some of these rifles are my favorite out of my collection and I wouldn't trade or sell them for 2-3x's what they are really worth. This is sentimental value. Many people form attachments to things that they spent time with or indeed built themselves. This isn't being stubborn - it is placing a value on a non material basis.
There is little difference between a grave and the house you were raised and raised your own children in. They are both the same thing in the end. You shouldn't separate them in your head.
david roberson you are exactly rite its shud b the persons choice no matter what they offer u an ther so called fair payment is a caluculation of theres so they can pay u what they want basicly so its bs
I'm with homeowners

@@shanmuganathansribaskarara6749 what the hell is with you indians writing random comments in the comment section
If you buy your house, farm, property, no government should be permitted to take it from you.
If you think you can truly own anything in the USA , just stop paying taxes on it and see how fast the government takes it from you.
kathy Putman right?
Private property, as long as it doesn't conflict with the greater good, that's the best your going to ever get. Not my idea, don't get mad at me.
If they offer me 3 million dollars for a crappy house worth less than 50k... Logic tells me to sell and buy a bigger house. Man and his feelings get in the way of logic
Kathy Putman if the land you payed for is completely payed off house and all they can't do shit
They should not make them move in the name of progress
+involved gamer nope just build around them it makes for a more interesting world instead of just large boring building you get a more interesting scene with w small home dwarfed by the larger buildings
Of all the places that would respect the homeowners rights I would not have expected it to be China. Even the US has no respect for homeowners. If you don't sell for a pittance they will just condemn it and take it away from you. Not that you really own it anyway when you pay taxes on it. You are just renting.
Amen
+consaka1
I wouldn't exactly calling it respecting their rights, when they actively do everything in their powers to flush out the people, including cutting off their water and electricity.
Einar Gissurarson In China I would expect the police to show up and haul them away and their house dozed. Obviously they have some rights to their property or it wouldn't be sitting in the road.
In the US you have no rights to your property. If the government wants it the government just takes it.
+consaka1 I'd fucking burn my home to the ground before I gave it up...
grettagrids I would too. especially if I actually owned it free and clear like you can only do in 3rd world countries now. In other words without property tax. Property tax basically means you have to be a slave to the system. And you don't actually own property if you pay taxes on it. You are basically renting it.
Hell no, government should never disregard the will of the people. That is why here in America, some shyster lawyer in office decided “Immanent Domain” was a good thing. What a crock!
Immanent domain is not bad, it just needs to be used carefully.
That Seattle house is adorable! I'm surprised I haven't seen it in person before!
The government should not have the right to make us moov

I'm extremely happy for those who managed to save their land. It's nearly impossible to do it even if you're many & not alone on that land.
Awesome lol goes to sure there are people who know how to stand their ground. Thumbs up to them 👍👍👍👍
Those people are heroes, the government has no right to force someone out of their home just because of some construction project.
+Plusile Actually, you may pay for the property, but the government still owns it.
+Plusile That is where you are wrong. The government has every right to do that and anything else they want to do with their property, and make no mistake, you are the property of the government of the country you live in. You only have what rights they decide at their whim to temporarily give you.
nunya biznez True. No one is truely "free".
+Plusile They are heroes if they had a reason to fight for it. But just to be stubborn? I mean, if it is something that helps thousands of people, or millions in some cities, then, how is the person who is now hurting those people a hero? Part of being a hero is making sacrifices, and what these people are doing is failing to make a sacrifice because they believe their home is special in some way, that the wood its made of won't rot. That being said, some of those peolpe have EVERY right to fight. Land that has been in the family for many generations is not something to be taken lightly, burial grounds, artifact locations, perhaps even just a historic location particular to that region, those are worth fighting for. But a house that is bound to decay before you do? To each their own, but being stubborn and selfish makes you a hero not. It makes you no better than a child who breaks his toy before he will share it with that other kid.
I think the goverment has the right to destroy there homes if they like it or not.
Fuck the 1million dollars, if my house was in the Mille of the road I would of made my own private booth (: and make money out of it
agreeed
+EDGARRIVALKING 562 you realise you are fighting against the same people who are supposed to give you a permit to do that right
+cameron martin I guess your right.holding your ground wouldent hurt eather way

In Brazil , the owner has no choice. He is forced to court accepts the property value decided by a judge.
Your home is your home, your safespace, no one have rights to move you out of it..
Good for all of these people!
I will always support property owners against the government. Freedom means INDIVIDUAL rights. My own homeland has been almost totally destroyed by developers. The needs (or wants) of the many do not always come before the needs and the rights of the few. Many decades ago, native Hawaiians had a saying "one day we will be strangers in our own land" that has basically come true, with the massive development (or in my opinion destruction) of the Hawaiian Islands. Hawaii was changed from a paradise to a tourist trap.
Thank you people who don't cave to the government!!!
Home have memories that are too impossible to move out.
Wow... the thumbnail was actually in the video. Thank you!
I am amazed.
Homeowners shouldn't be forced to sell their properties.They should be begged.
+princesse dejes i completly agree how can you force someone to move away from something wich they build their whole life around its just not fair
+MrMuziekman jesus christ eminent domain is a necessity. sometimes it is just ridiculous that homeowners don't sell their house for many times the market value. to think that one stubborn idiot should be able to be in the way of progress just because its so "wrong" to give that guy a fortune, is very fucking stupid. grow up kid
No government has a right to tell me to get off my land.
+Pamela Shearer Down in South in North Carolina, several of my Black relatives and their neighbors were urged off their property for construction purposes. Many of them were barely "compensated".
+Pamela Shearer - Many of these were done by private businesses.
congrats, you know how to read the bill of rights , just like any 4th grader in the entire country
some people complain specifically about China ... this kind of thing happens in places in North America too ... in my last city, the city took over the front yards of a whole street of houses to expand lanes on the street. People demonstrated but eventually their lawns were taken. If a government authority in North America wants your land, they will get it!
Yep. Witnessed this in Tigard, Oregon along the road, Walnut. None of the residents demonstrated, but most persistently kept up with going to city hall, public meetings, and calling their elected officials. Didn't matter, of course, because government. Yay, USA, right? heh. Stupid place.
Sleipnir Blue just curious, how much will the us government compensate the owner?
In my hometown of China, usually has a build area limit 120 square meters, government will offer the 120 square meters land, and fully cash for u to build a 3-stories house, if u old house is multi stories, then from second and above, the will have u Raquel size of apartments too, or u can cash out or switch them to some commercial property like shops etc. most of time people took the chance as to upgrade their old house, and quite a lot of people has enough cash and has continuous cash income from rental of their shops, they don’t have to work...
you can fight by the gun,but we olny have knife in china!
I Love these guys!
I think they have a right to live in there homes without any interference from any one else what a cheek thelling them to get out
If you believe in a free society private property is a must, of course homeowners are in the right.
our family and another family each owned their half of a mountain in eastern Kentucky we owned our half since 1860 in the early sixty's discovered a coal company took over the mountain to strip it down for coal and even built a airport on it !needless to say our family got robbed of any rights the judge we believe got paid off ! my poor mother got a check for a whole 300.00 dollars !
You might think these people are crazy but imagine this: Everyone you know is gone, you have enough to live, someone offers you a million dollar to separate from the house where you and your partner shared decades of love and companionship together. Even the boardgame you played in the candle light during that black out is there, the book you were given when you turned 50 with the story you loved growing up. That tea cup with a chip missing.
Is it really that stupid to value that more than a million dollars?
AA, you got my vote, and I'm Geoffrey Jones in montgomery co maryland.
🙌🏼
Sentimental value can be a powerful motivator.
Oh, being offered 3 million I think I could get over that in a big hurry. But see, I try to run my life on common sense and logic, not pure emotion. Take the money, buy something better and retire. I wish someone would offer 3 mil for my house, I'd be out of crappafornia so fast it'd make governor gavies head spin.
If you let emotions to control you, you are a weak man.
I live in Saint Louis. About 15 years ago, my Grandma lived near Lambert Airport. During that time, Hertz and other companies were buying a lot of the land to build big ass parking lots and car rental shops. My Grandma held out for a while (she's a very old-school, hard-headed Sicilian) and ended up getting enough money that her and my Grandpa were able to buy a brand-new home, in a much nicer neighborhood, outright.
This is exactly what I would do.
The homeowners have the right to hold on BUT, for the right price, sell it.
I agree as well ,no one has the rite to make u move from their land.
The first time on youtube the number isn't 5 or 10 !! It's 18 !!
I don not think the government should force people to sell their property for progress.
+carolyn bohannon you idiot. it is a necessity for progress. they are offered a very very fucking fair amount of money for their shitty house. this thing here is just ridiculous. every sensible first world country has eminent domain
+bastard™
I beg to differ here on who is the idiot. One of the pillars of a free society is personal property rights. When the government can trample on an individuals property rights then all pillars of rights begin to crumble.
However I will concede that there are, very rare, times where eminent domain could be used. But over the last few decades government of all levels have abused this power in favor of using to do more than build public works. Private companies have benefited from the abuse of ED. (in fact, right now in my state there is a questionable usage by government being fought in the courts over a privately owned pipeline running through the state - happens all the time)
mmfrnt1 personal property rights, human rights... expand your knowledge. you don't have any of those. you have privileges given by the government which can and are being taken away from you at any point when the agency of coercion, aka the government/state/whateveruwanacallit, wants to. if some poor guys little house is in the way of a huge project which affects positively to hundreds of thousands of people, it is very fucking reasonable to use eminent domain and pay that guy a very fair price and make sure he gets a nice home or in practically all of the cases, a better home.
but, there are cases of government abusing eminent domain, which i don't agree with, but even in those cases its for a pretty good reason and the homeowners always get good price. it's really never done without a good reason. the "bad" cases are so marginal that im not concerned about those.
+bastard™ It's their land, their rights. If you are able to completely own your home today then you are lucky. Just because it has better monetary value doesn't mean that it is worth more. It is judged by what the owner thinks that it is worth. For instance, if a family owned a house that their entire family lineage used to live in, it should be, because their memories and their landing staying there for so long makes money insignificant. it s their right to keep it.
The Turtle Men no its not their land, its not their rights. you don't understand the reality. you don't have a perspective associated with reality. individual persons home doesn't meant shit to anyone, if its in the way of larger good, that individuals home is going to be gone for good, but guess what, they are getting a good price out of it, the more they fight the more they get. thats always the case in constitutional state. in north korea that is different. your argument is pretty juvenile.
What about Kenny's house in Sodosopa ??
yes have you forgotten about it
that should be #19 at least
***** Nope, it was in SodoSopa not CtPaTown
lol
Im with the home owners!!
Eminent domain. Moved my family and our town of Port Chicago, California right out of existence. Thank you Navy and Government.
govt owns the country. i bet you support biden's eminent domain projests!
It seems that in China is legal to have your water and electricity cut out if you don't agree with someone else deciding about your house. Good to know.

+Maria Chat From Wikipedia: " Eminent domain (United States, the Philippines), compulsory purchase (United Kingdom, New Zealand, Ireland), resumption (Hong Kong), resumption/compulsory acquisition (Australia), or expropriation (France, Mexico, South Africa, Canada, Brazil) is the power of a state or a national government to take private property for public use. However, it can be legislatively delegated by the state to municipalities, government subdivisions, or even to private persons or corporations, when they are authorized to exercise the functions of public character.[1]
The property may be taken either for government use or by delegation to third parties, who will devote it to public or civic use or, in some cases, to economic development. The most common uses of property taken by eminent domain are for government buildings and other facilities, public utilities, highways and railroads, or for public safety. Some jurisdictions require that the acquirer make an offer to purchase the subject property, before resorting to the use of eminent domain.
Gunther Ultrabolt Novacrunch Thank you for taking the time to reply with all this information. it does make sense though I hope that people may be moved out of their houses but are given a new one and are not driven out on the street to cope with nothing.
+Maria Chat In China, Government usually offer a great compensation that is actually higher than the market rate, so many people want gov to take their land for infrastructure construction.
Think about this, 99% of their neighbors take the 2 mill dollar compensation (the actual land value may be only 1.5 mill) happily and moved out immediately. And they refuse to move out unless they got more for compensation. Most time Gov will try to work out by offer more, but often time they got really greedy and always want me and more. These people are usually very poor, they may not make more than 15K a year.
You see the risk and return now. If they can get 1 mill (that is almost 67 years of their salary) more in compensation by stay in their house everyday without water and electricity for two year, he will definitely do it. And do not forget they pocket that 2 mill compensation for the original offer too. 3 mill in total, what a sweet deal. Also, is this fair to others who moved out and cooperate with Gov in the beginning?
PS. I would do the same if a company hire me to stay in an area where no tap water and electricity for two year, if they pay me 100K(my anually salary) x 67 years = 6700K = 6.7 mill as long as it is not illegal.
Would you do it?
+Maria Chat thats the very least of it
they are a strong people to fight for them right:)godbless
I like people who hold on to their " PRINCIPLE" s ! and their PROPERTY !
Hang in there and be defiant!..
I don't blame these homeowners/small business owners in the least.
Gotta have some freaking principles.
nz rockdj XD
Truth be told, I would too :D
But I gotta respect these folks for trying to hold on to probably all they may have in the World :)
Seems like the folks in China have better property rights than in the US...in the US they just claim Eminent Domain and just take your sheet and you may or may not get a decent price for the property.
these people had all the right to defend the property that they owned
+Sukki Blue Right on! Shame on you, chinese investors!
There's one here, too. After numerous offers spanning about 30 years, he finally signed a deal they can buy it from his kids the day he dies. I remember when it was homes all around him. he's in his 90's, but the stubborn resolve gives him such satisfaction in life that he refuses to die. 39.80844, -89.65581
1:12 , thats sweet. I hope she keeps her house till well.. whenever I guess
The right to own is second to the right to life. So, the owners of these houses have the the right to refuse to move out. A good gov't should respect this.
the homeowner had the right to hold onto the land, for sure.. But, if you can make out like a bandit, making way more than you could in a lifetime,, take it and move on..
THEYRE IN THE RIGHT TO STAY IN THEIR HOME. ISNT THAT WHY HOME OWNERS PAY PROPERTY TAXES?
Property taxes are to pay for government services - they do not mean that you can't lose your home.
Even if you pay your home off, and you think it's really yours, try not paying taxes to our crooks in the government and they will take it.
@@FF5754 Why does owning your home mean you shouldn't pay property taxes? Do the schools, roads, and emergency services shut down just because you own your home?
@@mouthpiece200 of course they dont shut down. What I am saying is you never really own your land. You just feel like you do and pay rent from the government. If you dont pay taxes, they steal your land.
I know what you're trying to say. But you have a primitive view of land ownership, thinking that rightful ownership cannot also come with responsibility. Millions of people consider themselves true owners of their property, even though they are perfectly aware that they must pay taxes on it. Are you smarter than all the property owners of the world? They understand that ownership isn't necessarily absolute. You don't believe in absolute land ownership either. There are PLENTY of reasons where you might be perfectly willing to come onto my property against my will.
All humans beings are born on this rock and have a rightful piece of it. It is very funny that people think there is a right to exclude fellow human beings from a piece of their own home planet without compensation. You are living on my home planet, and if you want to section off a piece all to yourself, you must pay rent, and we call this taxation. This taxation also goes to fund services in the local area. You can say you own your land, but there is also a responsibility to others.
You don't truly believe in absolute land ownership. Suppose you and I are the only two humans living on an island, and there is no way off. Suppose I came to the island first, and claimed it all as my own. Do I have the right to cast you into the sea, as a trespasser? Or must I respect your right to live there too?
Owning something doesn't mean you don't have to pay taxes on it. Ownership is not absolute. You're not god.
It shows that government can get what they want in many ways. Home is pride, build with love for the family through hard works.
Cash can't buy memories yet the world is simple minded to see
no one has the right to make people move just to make more money for themselves.
Thanks for the red circle I wouldn't have seen the house otherwise
All power to those who wish to stay in their home and on their land!. Decisions should ALWAYS be made local by the people any development would affect!.
If the government is going to want to build on or near someones property they should at least cover any and ALL expenses to move them or their house or whatever it is they want to protect. FORCING someone to move is just not the right way to go. It just shows how much of a bully the government really is.
The government equals shady greedy assholes who wants the money

DO IT
jk
[i think we definitely need to do a mass coup]
these are the true hero's of the world
In reality, most of them were just holding out for more money. 😂
Back in the day They tried that with my family in Norweigh, halariously my ancestors took the money weeks later later the valley flooded, whipping out all who lived in the valley except the old home which happened to be carried by the flood waters to the opposite side of the valley, The projects were abandoned and they moved back in, VICTORY IS OURS!
Basically Chinese people stick by their word
it's not "in the name of progress," but all about "in the name of greed!"
+Shi Cruisin' How is building a network of high-ways in the name of greed?
The government has no right to force people and the owners have rights.
+AnimationArts! Does eminent domain include shopping malls?
Don't trust the government, any one of them
+Anime Master101 some of these houses are not suitable for construction of tall buildings because of there foundation. a taller building buidlt adjusent to them, that means the weight of that building sitt the entire area so that the soil under these owners houses are under stress. i guss these houses already shown up cracks and fallen walls. i guss they don't worth the offered money today.
Thank you for the big fookin circle in the thumbnail I really couldn't have seen the big ass house
The owners are right the government should not force people out
Homeowners rock on!
I have so much respect for the guy that kept his land to preserve the Native American artifacts. More people should be like him.
For real yo corporations don't care about history. Being native American that's mad respect
Amber Locked It looked like he was digging them himself.
Building and land development isn't necessarily progress. So by not moving, they're not stopping progress, they're just preventing annoying land 'development'.
All ancestral properties are never matter of *Stubborn but it's very Emotional crisis.*
the home owners are100% right
No most of them just old and mental.
The home owner are right to prevent many other people from having what they take for granted? Well in that case it works both ways, the people (the government works for people - not an individual) should be able to take their house away.
Lol, if not for that red circle in the thumbnail I dont think I would have spotted the house.....
Very good
I have never seen any thing that puts China is such a beautiful light. Good for them for letting them fight for the land and not just use force. MY hats off to china, if these stories are true.
Go homeowners!
That is not being stubborn. That is not letting oneself be screwed by some bully.
CRAZY HOMEOWNERS!
my grandma's village was demolished and most moved in new apartments. that was a learning opportunity for people.who want to understand how this happens in china. most people who stay simply want more money, while dignity and rights are never their major concern. fellow residents hate them much more than the government does, because sometimes due to the greed ans stubbornness of one guy everyone has to wait for a few years until they can be served by the planned new road or new subway line.
Yep, I'd tell them to do one. They should've thought of that before they started just building crap. No one should be bullied out of their home for any amount of money. That's sick
jajajaja i love these people knows how to fight what is right and never think about money
Ooohhhhhhh yeah i luv it ⚡
