NYC Congestion Pricing Launch & Protests

[@o221e3]

This is a loophole!! They couldn't add a bridge "Toll" to every bridge, so the loophole was congestion pricing, they were able to toll everyone without a technical "bridge toll". AUDIT THE MTA, I bet you will find the money they need. And many will be arrested !

You don’t get to enjoy the perks of life without paying into it. I’d be more happy to argue about government waste and the MTA not being efficient in using funds. But it’s much better tackling those issues than taking them away. Taxation is the reason you have roads and electricity. It’s the reason this country is as big as it is.
