99.999% of the country is land that is either undeveloped or if developed, only has short buildings on it. (If you look on a map of the U.S., cities are just dots and the CBD’s of the cities where there are tall buildings are just dots within the dots. That just shows you how tiny the areas are where there are tall buildings).
These NIMBYs decide to live in the 0.001% part of the country that has tall buildings on it and then complain about and fight against tall buildings.
That’s how ridiculous these people are.
