> You're being downvoted because you are not considering land use and zoning issues.

Don't care about downvotes but I care about arguments.

Uber and Lyft will check the drivers license even if government does not make it mandatory because a licensed and well experienced driver is in in the interest of Uber and Lyft.

I could not care less about "zoning laws" which serve no purpose to most sensible people and I dont see why AirBnB should give a damn about zoning laws. Also I would oppose government move to force these laws down people throats by forcing AirBnB hosts to have licenses.

>Hosts need to register to ensure that they don't convert their properties into full time hotels in buildings designed for residential use.

But that is the whole "innovation" in AirBnB. The very fact that AirBnB is cool because one does not have to comply the mountain of regulations that Motel 6 has to comply with.

I will be very happy to live in a residential property that is converted into defacto hotel through AirBnB.
