Sounds like a good opportunity to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and just pay the going rate for parking instead of sniveling about it.

Or, you could go the sociailist route, and ask the government to provide you with underpriced parking so you aren't inconvenienced on your ventures into downtown.

Oooooh - you have to produce results at work? I'm sure you are the only one, too. Nobody else here has a job.
