Houston isn't special. Yeah, we don't have strict zoning laws, but many neighborhoods have deed restrictions and the vast suburbs look like anywhere USA.

Too many right wing/libertarians try to pump up Houston as some Utopia and the inevitable left wing chorus pipes in to tell us how our city sucks. It's all so predictable and boring.
Except that the city is full of left wing residents who are perfectly happy. I don't think the real world is politically that simple.

I thought the thread was pretty interesting and going well for a while. Hopefully it can get back on track and not get closed.
