The lack of school district is the most hilarious objection. If you live in a rural area, then the government is required to send a bus miles out of it's way to get your kids to school.

Yet people living in one of the most populated cities in the US apparently live too far away from schools and shouldn't be allowed to build.

As one of those kids who got up at 04:00 to catch the 04:30 bus that arrived at school at ~07:45, (and repeated the trip -but in reverse- starting at ~15:00) I can confirm the truth of this statement. [0]

[0] I was literally the first child on and last child off of that particular bus. :/
