I'm sure you and many others would do the same. Many people incorrectly think they have the right to control what's built outside of their property, and it's bad that they think that way and it sadly leads to increased expenses of public goods and private goods.

Homeowners, myself included, do not have the right to control what exists outside their lot. We have zero control over what actually happens. That doesn't mean we are forbidden from voicing our opinions.

Yep, and as we all know, if you have money, you have the right to dictate what does and doesn't get built.

Like it or not, in America, that's reality. Money rules all. Do I agree with it? Absolutely not. But like I said, the flip side of being in America is, I can voice my opinion with zero fear of criminal retribution.

Money, in fact, does dictate what can and cannot get built. Granted, it's not directly applicable to my specific situation, but generally speaking, it's the truth in this country.
