How is this at all different from a rowhouse owner renting out her basement as a one-bedroom apartment? To those who claim that property values will plummet, houses with rental units routinely sell for more than their counterparts without rental units. Plus, I've never heard of those units being blamed for a degredation in the standard of living. And since the homeowners are required to live on the property as well, the fears of roving packs of trash-strewing renters mugging three people an evening seem a bit overblown.

And JamesG? If that was a farce - well done. If you were serious with that nonsense about personal property rights and liberty, please go look up irony and get back to us. While you're at it, take a look at hypocritical.
