> more money you have, more you benefit from this ruling

This is nonsense.

The poor of New York benefit from congestion pricing. It means more funding for the public transit they predominantly take. And for the minority who drive for a living it increases their revenues.

The opposition to congestion charges comes from principally outside New York, often from folks who have little to no familiarity with it.

As long as this system is a fixed price and is independent of the salary you earn, its benefits the rich more.

Its the same principle with kindergarden and late fee; Without a late fee, people sometimes were late getting their kids, with late fees more people were late getting their kids. Now they were able to 'pay' for this.

You now can pay for having less traffic for you. Who can afford this? The rich/richer person.

This increases inequality.
