I skimmed it so I might be wrong


but essentially the idea is to make your employees pay for parking and many of them will stop driving which reduces road congestion and pollution?

If we're talking parking in a congested city, fine. Whatever. But charging for parking in most areas of the US is a load of shit, and that ought to be self-evident.

I read it, and I still don't get it.

So what I'm understanding is: if you offer something for free, people will take it. If you start charging for that same thing, your profits will rise but not as many people will take it. Some may even get angry over it.

...so no shit?

tl;dr

Stupid hipster company thinks they solved an issue by charging outrageous prices to their own goddamn employees rather than accommodating their vehicles for a vehicle operated business.

Full time jobs are literally fucking required to provide health insurance for employees.
How dense are liberals?

if you're not in the US your country probably has a much better transit system with much more sensible parking requirements too

but I'm not surprised you guys don't want to pay for stuff over in communist the rest of the world anyway

how is that relevant? unless you think that means employees get free health insurance or something?

Basically they had to pay employees to not park at the building because they where too cheap to pay for enough parking spots.

If they make parking expensive, people will find alternative ways to get around it. In this case the alternative way is more public transportation and private non car transportation.

Hmm
