> I can get enough people to agree with me, we can pass laws

while that's true in this case of vacancy laws, it is not a universally applicable rule to be followed blindly.

Just because a large number of people agreed with a certain set of actions, doesn't mean those set of actions are good to undertake for society. Look at how venezuela got to the place they did, via democratic elections. The a majority of the people wanted the gov't handouts, and wanted nationalization of private property by force.
