Even without congestion pricing, the poor are the least likely to drive. Spending public money to subsidize driving (which we’re still doing on balance, even in Manhattan) disproportionately helps the wealthy.

I think the static pricing will create a distortion in the usage, maybe having dynamic pricing (with a ceiling) would be smarter?
