It's so weird how often the people with all the power pretend that compromising with anyone else is the exact equivalent of herding you into camps.

I'm not sure if you've heard of the concept of "zoning", but currently the law is the opposite: people are not allowed to build apartments or duplexes, row homes, etc, because residential areas only allow single family homes.

If you own a single family home, cool. Best wishes, all those things sound like fun activities and I hope you enjoy them. However, those of us who will never be able to afford a single home and don't need one would like more condos to be built. Now explain how building a condo for me infringes upon your rights.

They fear that their single family home served by miles of taxpayer funded road might be shaded by my quadplex were I to build one

Of course they're happy if I were to build a similar sized single family home
