I'll happily pay money to the state knowing it benefits everybody at least to some extent. Paying private corporations only benefits a few, which kinda negates the effect stuff like paid parking is supposed to have.
17:13 - corruptIt's slowly changing, and there are apps for this now. But they're private apps that come with an additional fee for the app provider. That's what I find annoying. Private companies making money on what should be state-run infra.
17:12 - corruptWhat irks me is the way they do it here where often you have to decide how long you want to buy a parking ticket for when you park, not when you leave. So you either overpay or get an additional fine for overparking.

17:08 - Boxcar WillyAnd yes, I get that you can still use these space for free if you don't park there, but it's the constant take take take.
17:07 - Boxcar WillyIt just seems like a low blow to charge people for these public spaces. There is not a lot one can do for free anymore, and going to a public park was one of those.
17:06 - Boxcar Willy...We support all kinds of public services that not everyone uses.
