In Latin america is pretty much the norm that in small neighborhoods there is at least 2 to 3 small stores in ppl's houses. I dunno about the US, but it can definetly help with the "car everywhere" culture, the enviroment and why not? also letting people getting some extra bucks by providing their neighbors with stuff they probably don't want to buy in huge quantities or are too lazy to drove to the store for.
In America it's illegal to run a store out of your house because white people hate minorites.
But it's your house !?
I'm no lawyer or anything, but isn't there a law that lets you do whatever the fuck you want to your house (something along the line of "castle bla bla bla doctrine"?
That would be too much freedom for the "land of the free".
