And don't block cars in or close off lanes because you can't walk another 100 feet. We had to "move" a car once to get someone out after some noodle head parked 5 feet off her bumpoer in the middle, Saabs are surprising light by the way. My problem with preferred anything is it leads to more and more preferred stuff. Stratton has the "i'm rich so i can cut the line pass" . Do we need more of that kind of stuff? Do we really need to give K managment more ideas on how to suck extra money out of us?
much as I understand that thats the way the world works I still don't have to like it
When do YOU get shut out? If paid parking gets popular, the price goes up , (supply and demand) . When does it bother YOU? When people are paying 50 bucks and it's you that has to go park elsewhere. I like the prime parking just like everyone else, thats why I drag my ass out of bed and get there early. Maybe I'm missing the boat . BTW, i also go nuts when healthy people take up the handicapped spaces too.

Nice touch....made me think.....still think it's wrong. tell me the free markets are really that. Corruption and influence peddling are rampant, I like simple concepts and stupidly believe that hard work should pay off. I can get you some bernie sanders stickers if you like.........
