If this hastens us toward a car-less future, maybe it will turn out for the better. Probably won't do that though, probably will just fleece those already dependent on cars.

It will do the opposite. City officials will be more hesitant to close parking spaces. Even if it turns out that the revenue paid out to CPM is still lower than the added benefit the city receives.
