To say you really lose nothing is a bit of an overstatement. It's like saying that losing your right to bear arms really isn't losing anything. It's like saying losing your right free association really isn't losing anything. It's like saying losing your right to a speedy trial really isn't losing anything. Yes. It's losing stuff. And it's done in the name of comformity and housing values -- not the nobelist of causes.
