    You might also not want a bar opening its doors above your apartment because there’s no zoning laws… Or for all arable land to be converted to factories and shopping malls more than they’ve already been.

    The problem, to me, is more that the people managing zoning aren’t doing it logically and, in some cases, don’t have enough control over what commercial zoning means.

    Example from around here: Having two Best Buy a couple hundred meters from one another in a location where there’s no groceries makes no sense, but because it’s all commercial the city can’t prevent it? That’s bullshit.
