But I want my burger!!

Here is an article from last week's New York Times regarding fast food restaurants in South Los Angeles. It turns out that South LA is too fat and too poor to have any new fast food restaurants. At least that is what the LA city council says. Uh huh. True story. They voted last week (mid-January) to ban the opening of any new fast food restaurants in South LA.

New Fast Food Ban

A moratorium has been in place since 2008 but now they're completely banned.  

Should we be able to ban new businesses because of the makeup of the neighborhood?  Thoughts?
