Describing NIMBYism as "narcissistic assholes" is a gross oversimplification, and misses the point I'm getting at.
In the US, you'll reliably get a lot more NIMBY response from "set up a nuclear power plant in the neighbourhood" vs. "set up a gas power plant in the neighbourhood". However, if you look at the risk assessment, the gas power plant is far more lethal to the neighbourhood.
