The superficiality of NIMBYs
from this article:
Glendale residents say the RVs have been parked there for a while, creating an eyesore in the community. “I think they make the neighborhood look very bad,” one woman told CBS2’s Reena Roy. “I don’t think that they belong here,” said another. ... “We started seeing one, two pop up, so what you see a lot of now is a lot of litter,” one man said.
What is more important, liberty or the aesthetic judgements of onlookers? Do they also complain about neighbors’ BMI or ugly children? If not, why not?
The litter comment posits a cause-effect relationship that may not be supportable by evidence. If the RV folks (or folk in this case) litter then enforce laws against littering.
