>I know no city in the US is pursuing a laissez faire policy
Well of course. The people who want laissez faire anything don't wind up living in the cities that have these problems. they self select to live in rural areas and the occasional rust belt dump where there is either no regulation or no enforcement.
The people who don't recoil at the thought of their property rights being violated wind up living in Boston, SF and their surrounding suburbs and vote for more of the same.
