As someone who works in an industry where NIMBYISM is present on an almost-daily basis, it is extremely annoying and tiring to hear from so-called 'experts' about projects in which they usually fail to see the forest through the trees - but of course, that's not the case and they know better than the people working in the industry or on those projects. If anything, NIMBYers motivate us to push our developments through faster and with stronger resolve.
