Seems like typical NIMBYism to me.


Why do some people think that the acronym "NIMBY" is a means of gaining them
support and justification for imposing some quality-of-life-reducing
development on someone else?

These sorts of things should be built Well Away from where people live, even
if it adds significantly to the cost.


I prefer the acronym "BANANA" - 'Build absolutely nothing anywhere near anything'!
