> However, the "God-given Right to Free Parking" mentality would never allow it to work

Um, most cities in the US have metered parking, too.

It's only when you reach the suburbs that parking changes to free. And that's because, with prevalent car ownership, having to pay for parking will decimate a store's customer base.



Even most metered city parking is far below what the "free market" rate would be.
