    This is the least the government can do for homeowners. I pay a shit ton in taxes and I get shit in return.

    I don't know about you but I want something back in return for my money. Or I want my money back. We can get rid of zoning laws when the government cuts taxes massively and abolishes welfare and other entitlement programs.

      Oh really? We shall see. I don’t think it’s the rich who control the city council in Seattle anymore. Soon rent control. Then end of zoning. Then legal squatting. I will always support the plight of the poor even if it may not be financially advantageous to me because I support living in a fair country.

      Too bad for the rich renters can also vote and the more of them that live in the city the easier it is to end socialism for the rich.

      Lol.. this Amazon dude doesn't understand the nature of poverty.

      You'll be shot dead by some drug dealer long before you realize this is a bad idea financially.

    No kidding. I rather enjoy knowing some jackass can’t build a used car lot, a factory, casino, or strip club next door and my kids can grow up in a peaceful neighborhood with good schools.

    And you can suck it if you’re salty about it. If you want libertarianism, move to Somalia. There’s practically no government there.

      Ok and I’ll tell you to go fuck yourself and build that strip club where I want it not where you want it cause I own the land 😆 I’ll tell that to your face and if you don’t like it you can buy it from me for 5X it’s value. Else strip club goes where it goes. What you want is socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor. Everyone should have the right to do as they wish with their land. Stay out of peoples private business you rich commie.

      Why do you keep going back to the poor and saying I don’t give a fuck? I care about a functioning economy, but I’m a realist. I never claimed to give a fuck about anything but myself and my family and my community. If that makes me an asshole, then you’re the same asshole. Because you’re no different than me.

      And libertarianism is just a frat boy fantasy politics. Just grow up and realize that’s not how the world works, and will never work. Rousseau died on that hill, as attractive as it sounds.

      Can we cut with the charade now? You care about yourself. I care about myself. Every home owner is a NIMBY, and everyone can F off. NIMBYism is transpolitical. It has nothing to do with liberals or conservatives.

      That seems to be the gist of it, agreed?

      OP
      That’s the risk of owning property. Maybe when risks like that are real there will be less greed in the housing market. The only factor that should ever be considered is health factors. So in this case due to health factors it would not be appropriate. However the risk someone builds a loud amusement park right next to your house should be a real risk. Their land their right.

      well i am a smart, wealthy, and well connected coal plant owner and i can convince local government that my coal plant will not adversely affect the health of your family. i will build the plant anyway

      maybe to entertain the workers i will build a gentlemans club on the other side of your house. my shipping trucks will destroy your road since they are too heavy for the residential asphalt and they can refuel at the service station i will build across the street from you
