@jeffowski that's why we should tax capital much more than income

@jeffowski

Under capitalism, the value of a thing is simply defined by whatever you can get for it.

@jeffowski -all the fun comments aside, how does one achieve the $27/h - what kind of parking is that, what is average stay and average occupancy throughout the day/week? For how many vehicles?

@jeffowski Should allow cars to park on them... problem solved.

@jeffowski
Where are all the commenters telling her she should have biked or ridden a bus?
Maybe the city administration is listening to her generation, who are mostly demanding downtowns free of personal vehicles.

@jeffowski The trick is, the parking space only makes $27/hr for the hours it actually works

Which is why I ensure I’m paid for many more hours than I actually work.

…you’re also only getting my inflation adjusted level of effort

@jeffowski @drahardja And two parking spaces could be a small apartment. We value parking more than people in so many ways.

@jeffowski @Saltssaltgirl The problem is that, when people work for corporations, their employers walk all over them.

If they allowed employers to 𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘦 all over them, they could make $27 an hour.

@jeffowski You know the world is f**ked when a void is valued more than a living being!

@jeffowski @CassandraZeroCovid More accurately, the parking space makes its owner $27/hr, and the more accurate comparison is how much money you make your employer by working hard for minimum wage.

@jeffowski I worked my way through college as a parking space.
