This is a disgrace. At a time when businesses are already struggling to survive after the pandemic and inflation, this is the last thing needed by NYC. For awhile, I thought that the governor had woken up and decided for the good of all New Yorkers, but I guess not...
The toll will increase the cost of logistics for restaurants. And guess what? Consumers will end up paying for it. Restaurants gone? Okay, less business for the city to collect from and more for residents 😂. Assuming there’s any residents left. Even that is dwindling. 😊.
Yet one more reason NOT to live in NYC, or in big cities in general. Prices, crime, crowding, taxes already high. This just adds insult to injury. And I get the motivation. Wouldn't be so bad if they could actually make the subway system work WELL, so lots of people had a better alternative re getting around in NYC.
I think the number of people going into Manhattan is going to go down because no one will pay more money just to enjoy the restaurant. No more fees and tariffs. They're killing businesses in NYC.
The MTA is losing over $750 million or more a year because people are not paying to ride the train and buses. So now they are going to screw the working class. They need to fix people not paying first. I will not spend my money in Manhattan.
@@Solisium-Channel London implemented the same system and the residents too care of it. One guy even become a hero after taking down more than 100 cams. They call him the blade runner. Lol
If the cost of living isn't already high enough. The traffic should be the sole factor not to drive, but sometimes driving is essential. The subway is already packed with bums and dirty animal
CONGESTION PRICING: Basically you pay a fee (about nine dollars) to be able to take a vehicle into a busy section of Manhattan in peak hours. Off hours are about $4.50. It's what London has and it's unfair IMO to the working class.
And you know this how? If you check the data for the past 30 years. NO I repeat NO republican president has been good for the country NONE! While on the other hand democratic presidents have helped the poor and elderly plus veterans. It's not a division thing. It's a country thing@@nikkibest5010

Congestion pricing is beneficial in that it will help us pay for the services provided to our guest illegal immigrants. I think it's okay to pay a little extra for the convenience we enjoy, and at the same time, the money can go toward helping those illegals by providing food, shelter, and eventually a path to citizenship. As a Democrat, I support this idea, and I believe we need more taxes, fees, and pricing models like this to prosper together.
@@rogergeyer9851hey Roger, America wants Trump to clean house…..so shut up and let him do what the vast majority wants him to do. Drain the swamp……and by the way, clown show is what the last 4 years have been under Dummycrat rule. You losers better come up with a new strategy, or Democrats will never win another election, but actually that would be a good thing for America and the entire world, you America hating woke liberal leftists…….go watch some more of “The View” for your propaganda🤣🤡🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Between Covid and taxes, that pretty much ended any desire to eat out much. Then there's the fact that most restaurant meals are so BAD for you - and that seals the deal for me.

Have you ever heard of a civilization taxing itself into prosperity. New York has a lot of lessons to learn the hard way.
We need to fire Governor Hochul
NY had a chance with Zeldin but blew it.
Congestion pricing is just a cash grab for the MTA this won’t reduce traffic
That doesn't make sense. Half of the comments say people won't drive into the city as much anymore as protest which literally reduces traffic lol

Imagine paying an extra $9 just to dine at your favorite restaurant. No thanks
It's NYC! put your life on the line and take the subway!
@@Jzak25 hahaaha yep!!!!
Tax, more tax. At the end of the day, we are working for government. We have choice but that choice we have are just an illusion.

Will be the death of many small businesses.

I can not pay my phone bill and the food rent atall
Time for New Yorkers to take care of these license reading cams. 🔨
Tea Party style! Great Idea.
No taxation through false representation.

When is Hochul's reign over?
Never. She runs again in 2026. She already made that announcement. No reason to think the NY voters will have gotten any less stupid.
WTF is congestion pricing?
Something straight from N. Korea and China
Definitely a Democrat policy.

It’s way to keep MTA executive pockets congested with cash
Bye bye Restaurants
🤣🤣 New York 🤣🤣
Oh well should of thought of that to be honest you cannot expect the distributors to pay the price

Governor Hochul feels your pain that's why Manhattan people will shop close to home
How can this help anyone but a bureaucrat?
Well NY, you're all getting exactly what you keep voting for. Stop voting Democrat!
Yeah, because Trump is SO much better as he appoints a cabinet right out of a clown car, for example. /s
Yep

@@rogergeyer9851 Notice that dems waited until AFTER November 5th to do this.......
Yall better call the gov & bark on her heavy. Tell her to scrap this bs altogether.
Is it me or are they doing it just to keep the press busy?
I love this plan. There's too much traffic in New York.
So MTA can have more useless overtime
' ! ❤ ! " Responsibility Matters for ALL Lives " ! USA ! *
This guys business is going to go under not bc of congrstion pricing. But because he has no idea how match works.
Personally I never eat out.. Really don’t care…

@ Agreed! That’s another reason…
How about 3000 traffic speed and red light cameras in NYC to grap money. They are evil.
Keep voting democrats lol
