The Reverse Commuter Tax

Submitted by A. Levy, Feb 3, 2008 23:38

Once again, NYC motorists are being victimized. We, who already pay the highest fee's in the nation for drivers licenses, registration and plates, vehicle inspections, parking summons, tolls, on and off street parking, and insurance, will once again, be forced to subsidize that insatiable monster, that bottomless black pit, the MTA! When will someone subsidize the motorists, or have we now been lowered to a comparable status with smokers? Apparently, the mayor thinks we all have his mega-wealth. Well, we don't! Unlike the mayor, most of us have to fight every day just to make ends meet. Soon, there'll be a coin box on every corner, where you will pay for simply walking down the street! How far off can that be?
