Where does this Aynesque belief in the invisible hand come from?
- toomuchtodo 3y agoReligious economic beliefs (some flavor of libertarianism).

- gruez 3y agoIt's "Aynesque belief" to recognize that removing the supply of parking spots will disincentivize people from driving into the city?
- k_ 3y agoWell it's France.. when there's no parking spot sidewalks and bikelanes become parking spots..
- creer 3y agoHow strange! Removing spots was supposed to solve people's problems. /s
- tgv 3y agoNot only is it weird to argue against a price increase, then reframing the problem to something else, and then propose the market to solve that (which means more parking spaces or higher prices). But there is no market in the first place. How is it going to solve anything?
- CalRobert 3y agoTo be fair the market was so good at turning parking in to better land uses the US spent eighty years making it illegal to build... Anything, really, without oceans of parking.
