Why should we subsidize the food service industry so their workers can continue to live far away and drive to work - so non-poor people continue to pay more for other companies' workers?
It's not like the majority of poor people driving around SF are joy-riding. They are mostly getting to and from low paying jobs (by definition of being poor, they are not driving to high paying jobs).
So their companies can either pay them more and raise their prices accordingly - and the cost is paid by the people who use the service - or non-poor people can pay a higher congestion tax and we can socialize the cost on privatize the gains to the companies.
Non-poor people don't take up more space, cause more noise, or pollute more.
