Are the tolls income based? This will disproportionately affect lower income residents in New York.

Why does Cuomo hate poor people?

I’m literally shaking I’m so pissed

“We have the ability with technology to put tolling anywhere in the city, it’s not just at the bridges,” Cuomo said. “So we can be very flexible and variable. ”

Get a federal tax cut and then get fricked by your state. Awesome.

Doesn’t that just go to show you the Dems (and all politicians) look at your paycheck as their money that you have taken from them and not vice versa?

This. The biggest downfall I can think of is the increase in bus/train/ferry traffic for the bridge and tunnel people. Maybe a slight increase on uber rates?


Increased cost of goods and services related to transportation costs?

Exactly. Congestion pricing has been an idea touted by mayors for a long time.
