We have the right to property, not the right to property in a specific place like LA or NYC, and so on. Tough luck, look somewhere else or reconsider your priorities. Making things impossible is part of freedom. Finding a KKK-friendly community is impossible in most of the country, but that doesn't indicate a lack of freedom, nor is it something most people would have a problem with.
- emodendroket 5y agoUh yeah of course but hardly confined to huge cities like that.
- silicon2401 5y agoThe principle is the same. It's like complaining that it's hard to travel by horse and buggy. Nobody's obligated to keep houses HOA-free and nobody's entitled to HOA-free houses. If it's really that big a deal, start an anti-HOA movement in a community where the opportunity exists, just like pro-HOA people started HOA communities where the opportunity exists.

- emodendroket 5y agoEven when that's true, they'll object to a new development without an HOA because they don't want the city on the hook for common infrastructure just for that new development.
