No disagreement here.

>American love complaining about the inefficiencies of centrally planned economies, but then make one of the most important aspects of the economy, where people can live and work, into a entirely centralized way of doing.

Are they really centralized? NIMBYs aren't some cabal of shadowy billionaires, they're a grassroots effort by local residents. By that definition it's quite decentralized.
