I'm sorry, but as someone who usually travels on foot or by transit I don't benefit when I'm forced to subsidize somebody else's driving.

Surely you'll agree that sleeping and eating are more fundamental human needs than driving. Yet we don't require an office building to contain bedrooms for all the people who work in the building. We don't require cafeterias - we allow a building's eating needs to be pushed out onto other buildings' restaurants. Why should cars be treated differently? If drivers are willing to pay the cost of providing parking, they should get parking, but they shouldn't be subsidized by non-drivers as they are now.
