People are stupit to "own" something knowing others can restrict your use of it.
there are benefits. all the people in the neighborhood (no government is involved) get to vote on the property rules. i'm in one and i don't have to worry if some guy wants to start raising elephants in his back yard and kill all of our property values. i voluntarily joined the HOA (by buying my house in a neighborhood that required membership) and i can raise any issue and vote any way i want. it freedom in it's purest form. if i don't like it, i can move. to a house where there is no HOA.
