It won't kill businesses, it will move them. No business has the right to a specific location if it requires it's neighbors properties to.

Second, if urban planning is done properly, residential streets don't experience parking problems. That's the whole point of this thread. And if urban planning is not done well, then it doesn't matter where businesses move--they'll still run into problems. Oh, and if they all leave, then the neighbors will have a nice blighted block with empty buildings next door. Problem solved? Parking meters do not magically create more parking spots. They create an incentive to use an alternative, but first there needs to be a good alternative.
