Which is all the more evidence it's not about making the city work better for its inhabitants, it's about a revenue stream. Diverted traffic? Regressive costs for those most unable to avoid them? Corporate giveaway to the admin who runs tolling? What's not to like?

Yup, yup. Plus environmental costs as more traffic diverts to streets less capable of handling more traffic.

The tolling decision was moronic, glad to see it got killed.
