Hey New York, how's it going now that you've killed the plan for congestion pricing in Manhattan?

Bus and Train service into the city can easily pass $15 round trip even with monthly passes. It was so infuriating to have to listen to people who already pay $600+ for a garage already crying about having to pay $15. If you live in New York City you know the area they wanted to tax has almost no parking before 7 pm except for commercial vehicles, and it is $5+ an hour (based on area, and increasing in cost by how long you stay) to even do that. And to make it worse was how many of those upset would be people from Upstate and New Jersey who only come to NYC 2x a year if that.
