There's a tent city/shantytown here in my home town which is in a perpetual cycle of being torn down and rebuilt.

- scotty79 17y agoThat kinda illustrates what I mean. You can effectively perform legal action against single guy who was smart and rich enough built huge castle for his family (and probably did it smart way), but you can't do anything effective to protect people inhabiting most dangerous buildings because you don't have tools to enforce building code on them. Periodical tearing it down doesn't do anything good.
