I think you're missing the ball on this one, MB. I LOVE me some congestion pricing. When parking is scarce, make it more expensive. When there's a glut, make it cheap. Same with expensive black car ride sharing. What NY ought to do (it's often discussed) is put up toll gates all around the city. When there's a lot of traffic, make it expensive to drive in the city. When the streets are deserted, make it cheap. There's no fundamental 'right' to a given price - pricing is how you even out demand spikes, and everybody wins....
