This kind of parking restriction gets me incensed as well.
It applies in rich parts of town in general.
I'm paying MY tax money for these roads but only people with a residential permit can use them.
- Tyrek 8y agoJust because you've contributed an infinitesimal amount to a road doesn't necessarily mean you have a right to it, just as how I don't have a right to drive a tank around because my taxes are funding it. Taxes are not the 1:1 transactional relationship that it's commonly conceptualized as - it's part of the whole social contract, and different groups benefit differently.
- nickthemagicman 8y agoI at least gain some marginal benefit from that tank in the sense that it provides me protection. Subsidizing wealthy peoples parking nets me no marginal benefit.
