This sounds simple, but many people are already living further away because they can’t afford to live downtown near where they work. Add kids into the equation, and many people who could live there without them are also forced out.

Congestion pricing is a regressive tax.

The most regressive tax imaginable is a flat fee for every person with no consideration of income. That is exactly the effect of requiring everyone to own a car.

It isn’t a flat fee per se, if only because wealthier people are too prideful. Rich man buys a 100k mercedes. Poor man buys that mercedes 15 or 20 years later for 3k. It still does what it did when it cost 100k.

It's a 3k tax, the other 97k wasn't part of the tax.

Used car prices are more like 10k now anyway. Used Mercedes, probably 40k.

I can tell you don’t check used car prices
