Re: The mayor is apparently considering eliminating free parking in NYC

the value of the free parking is priced into home prices and rents in various places

In general, the problem with new fees, no matter how justified they are, is the economic disruption they cause.

The people of the City of New York own the streets. Why can't they get paid for renting them out? And the answer is just what you alluded to. Completely unexpected destruction of economic value.

Very similar to the issue with tariffs.
