How about a few dozen “Checkpoint Charlies” set up?

Turn it into East Berlin.

They should have one toll lane staffed by head-waiters in black tie and gloves, handing out canapes and flutes of champagne, lit by a candelabra, and charge $50.

the idea of penalizing those who need to go to new york
by charging them 8 bucks below 60th street is regressive
taxation…it is like the payroll tax…it hits most
people in the middle to lower class…if they want to raise
money let them create super lanes on the west side highway
for those who are willing to pay high prices to get in and out quickly ..or turn one of their north south streets into
a superlane charging 20-30 bucks to race throught the city
that way the money can be raised by those able and willing to pay for it..not the rest of us

Yeah, well Napolean Bloomberg met his Waterloo alright. But he didn’t lose to any great adversaries. He lost to the Keystone Flops in Albany. It’s surprising enough of them were out on bail so they were able to say they opposed it.

Mayor Bloomberg was trying to pull the wool over the eyes of those living in the suburbs. Assemblyman Brodsky saw this antic for what it was and put all his political muscle behind the efforts to stopping congestion pricing and Assemblyman Brodsky did his job looking out for HIS Constituents. Great job Assemblyman Brodsky!
