Try the political quiz

The level of political malpractice here just astounds me:

-A congestion pricing delay outrages advocates while failing to please detractors

-The nakedly political reason for the delay makes it easy to attack Democrats from both sides of the issue

-Hochul's alternative revenue idea (raising the payroll tax again) hurts workers and the economy, and will be unpopular

-If she wanted to do this, why didn't she ask for it in the budget, when she had leverage?

One other thing: Announcements that congestion pricing is about to start have been all over variable message signs on freeways in the NYC suburbs for weeks. If you’re not gonna go through with it, why did you rile up car commuters with lots of messages saying you would?

The payroll tax idea is just genuinely insane.

Instead of Long Island commuters, lets raise taxes on businesses and workers in the city.
