| Comment | why? "I support housing but just not here where I live" is the essence of nimbyism and the reason we have such an acute housing issue in this country is that the planning system empowers (typically time-rich, asset-wealthy) locals to ban more people from living near them - rinse and repeat everywhere for decades (there are always trees/aesthetics/noise excuses) and you have a massive housing crisis and insane generational unfairness |
