Make it unaffordable in a city for service workers to live, and there will be no one to host your night out on the town. No one to serve your dinner, or to tear your venue ticket, or to play live music.
- subpixel 4y agoAs I said, it’s unreasonable in the big picture. The big picture matters. But it’s not _illogical_ for someone who has everything they want to oppose things they don’t need. NIMBY-is like another application of the “possession is 9/10ths of the law” argument. It has legs, but it doesn’t always win out.
- andirk 4y agoI know what you mean but I still disagree. Is it _illogical_ to care for the disabled, elderly, widows and orphans in their affliction? I walk past people in need all the time but I don't justify it. Logical is subjective according to the person's wants and needs.
