Seems the $9 NYC car tax is effectively clearing out the streets of traffic.

If so what's going to be the economic hit of effectively banning economic interaction in the city?

I wouldn't doubt once the tax revenue losses come in, from people now just avoiding the city entirely, that $9 tax is gonna go away real quick and celebrating libs are gonna be real mad confused on what's going on.

near as i can figure they're emptying out the cities into the countryside so they can build their 15 minute cities. then they'll call them all back and 1984 it up. probably 2030 or so, according to their plans.

Then when all the businesses shut down and leave, what will they tax next?

[ - ] RobertJHarsh 0 points 5 monthsJan 13, 2025 15:48:45 ago (+0/-0)

Let's see if it stays empty. The war on cars is a slow slog to the dims.

I'm sure that clearing the streets of traffic will do wonders for the businesses there.

Driving everyone to the subway, where they will get mugged and pushed infront of trains, thining out the herd making room for more diversity.

The increased number of subway users - will no doubt introduce fare hikes to offset all the increased user demand on the existing system. Reeeee.
They did a similar thing here years ago with banning of open fires etc for climata-changy and pushing everyone to clean green electricity/ heat pumps - 'oh vey - too much increased demand on the grid infrastructure - need to offset that with rampant price hikes, goyim'.
SOP - Problem, reaction, solution inevitably ends with price increases on the consumer.

Now imagine the same, pumps, EVs, no gas stoves wahatever but at the same time you shut down all energy production and import it for a shitload of money.

I wonder how that move will work out for Germany, no really ride is gonna be fun.

[ - ] dassar 0 points 5 monthsJan 14, 2025 16:23:24 ago (+0/-0)

Yep, they're already tapping Germany's and Europe's cheap oil/ gas supply from Russia and all to develop new energy supplier's ( ie, the US et al) but for a much more expensive cost.

Jew york city is always going to have jew money printed off the inflation tax. It's going to be rough for non jews, but that is the intent. First they get rid of all the non whites and the results will be good. Then the buisnesses that aren't getting jew bux will shut down and make room for jew owned establishments.

It's a really good plan if you are a jew.

Explanation of this tax Sounds like all roads leading into the city are like toll roads, so they charge you $9 to enter.

"If so whats going to be the economic hit...."

all the businesses on the streets that cars are now banned from are going to go under and those suburbs will turn into criminal infested low occupancy shitholes, and then blackrock etc buy up all the property, and bang, smart city time.

in the west they burn the shit out of everything, in the east they let the locals burn it down themselves.

there is no such thing as 'travel tax' that 'beautifies' anything, its all money going into private pockets.

I believe the only profitable mass transit is in Japan. Mass transit never turns a profit.

[ - ] uvulectomy 3 points 5 monthsJan 13, 2025 14:54:13 ago (+3/-0)*

Mass transit in Japan also isn't subsidized by the government. The price people pay at the ticket gate is the actual price.

Also a good number of workers in Japan have their transit fares comped by their employers, so there's no worry about fare evasion.

And let's not forget the biggest reason of all: Japan is a mostly homogeneous, high-trust society that frowns upon the shenanigans you see on Western transit systems. More trust = more people riding the trains = more money.

For fun, let's look at the recovery ratio of two companies.

JR Central: 245.95% of operating expenses are met by passenger fares.

MTA: 24.44%. The rest of their expenses are met from government subsidies, taxes, tolls, etc.

Oh, and a lot of the railway companies in Japan own real estate around the stations. And since real estate in Japan is expensive, that's a lot of gravy on top of what they're already bringing in.

WE COULD HAVE WHAT THEY HAVE IF WE GET RID OF NIGGERS, KIKES, AND THE VARIOUS FLAVORS OF SPICS!

Well if you consider that more people use it as there is less danger for your life to take a fucking train meaning more pay for it, this brings me to point 2. No fare evasion and point 3 nobody is breaking shit.

More money + less neede maintenance = room for profit.

Can jew yawk city get any worse??? Honestly, are they deliberately trying to speed their way down the shitter.

I shouldn't have clicked the link. Nothing but reddit fags sucking Hochul's dick over this all the way down. They think the city is suddenly gonna have this windfall of cash to fund green bullshit, not realizing that if there's nobody driving in the streets, NOBODY IS PAYING THE FEE.

My favorite part: "Drivers not wanting to pay $9 a day, but are OK with a $800 a month loan for 200 months for that car is hilarious."

Leave it to a reddit bugman to assume a car is a six-figure purchase, or to be so utterly retarded they think everyone is dumb enough to have a predatory loan like that.

Also, can't wait to see the increase in niggers causing accidents from street racing in Manhattan (or just driving like niggers in general).

If Putin nuked Jew York, most of America would thank him.

Yeah but reddit isn't populated with humans. It's all bots, NPCs, browns and kikes. No intelligence, knowledge, reason, logic or sanity, can be found there.

no they dont.

unless ive misread and youre talking about the redditors in which case i agree, but no, the people setting this up dont intend to make any damn profit from these tolls at all. its smart city shit. its purely and simply about not letting people travel through wherever it is the cars are banned.

As much as id like to believe there's a bigger plan at work, NY is run by criminal low IQ morons. I highly doubt these people are thinking decades in the making. These fucks can barely anticipate something a few days in the making, let alone years out
