That is easily solved by congestion charging.
- infogulch 9y agoIn those words that idea is simple to explain. The logistics of an actual implementation would not be so easy.

Congestion used to be the one inconvenience rich people couldn't buy themselves out of. I can understand the impulse to keep it that way, though the benefits of congestion pricing probably do outweigh the symbolic problems.
