Yup

There's a thing called NIMBY (not in my backyard) regarding things like "build more prisons! but, um, not in my backyard", "get rid of toxic waste...but um, not in my back yard"

We need an anagram for businesses who say something like "hey, they charge too much, they need to be regulated, but um, don't regulate my industry"...
