Zoning laws

Individuals should be left free to use their property for whatever purposes they wish as long as they do not interfere with the equal right of other people to enjoy their property peacefully. We stand steadfastly opposed to zoning laws.

You always here people say "not in my back yard", or "we don't want that kind of business in our neighborhood". Then a zoning battle ensues. The problem with zoning laws is that they interfere with an individual's right to use his/her property freely. If government can tell a person that they aren't able to use their home as a business because the area isn't zoned for "commericial" property, they can just as easily rezone a residential area as commericial property and kick out residents.

Just as you wouldn't want someone telling your what can and cannot do with your own home, neither should we tell others what to do with their property.
