I regret to inform you that left-wing governance has struck again. In New York City, sky-high, around-the-clock “congestion pricing” has been put into effect for a large portion of Manhattan. That means working-class individuals will now be forced to shell out $9.00 every single time they cross 60th Street, with even higher fees for commercial vehicles.
No worries, though. This is all for their good because this is supposedly going to raise $15,000,000,000 for “mass transit improvements.” In other words, you’ll ride the subway, and you’ll like it.
NYC congestion tolls start tomorrow for motorists entering Manhattan at 60th St. or below:
• Cars/SUVs/pickups: $9
• Non-commuter buses: $14.40
• Big rigs: $21.60
• Motorcycles: $4.50The MTA wants to raise $15 billion for mass transit improvements and ease gridlock pic.twitter.com/pDPsFhL5vy
