Shitty rules that don't serve people need to be broken. I want to see my property value go up, not down so some hipster developer can afford it.
"Shitty rules that don't serve people need to be broken."
Surely that's true, but nobody can agree on which exact rules need to be broken. :)
So you'll forgive me when I call the police because you're building favelas in your back yard and have 20 micro-rentals.
Both Uber and AirBnB knowingly break the law as part of their business model.
Zoning doesn't allow the kind of business that AirBnB has, they just don't care.
One could very well argue that maybe the laws need reform (as I do) but that's another story; the inherent ethos of YC et. al. is to err on the side of breaking the rules.
