All parking on public land (be it a street or a city owned lot) should be paid
I wish the extra money would fund building better public transport.
Or we can acknowledge the reason we have money: to distribute scare resources. Parking in urban areas is scarce and expensive, while space to walk and sit simply isn't.
Why do we give away garage space for free to car owners? Storage for your vehicle in a busy city shouldn't be subsided by default. The space is too valuable and could be used instead for better public benefit.
It's paid for by taxes on the fuel.
No need to double charge.
