The liberals, socialists, etc. never realize, and never admit, that taxes on business activity, drive up the cost of the product sold to the consumer.

Let the trucks stop for two days.

The politicians want to make a difference? That ought to do it.

“Consumers will bear the ultimate cost, business owners warn.”

That’s the plan.

Combines in Manhattan are going to have to pay congestion taxes to be able to harvest the wheat fields to make bread for the peeps?

I work in Manhattan but pack my lunch about 90% of the time. It’s a shame because NYC has some of the best foods in the world to offer - not to mention all the great food trucks. But it’s prohibitively expensive to do every day.

Doesn't the technology exists for sky farms? Instead of taxing everything to death, why don't liberals use the money instead to grow food indoors hydroponically? I mean we're already one-fifth into the 21st century already.

Yeah, I know my questions are rhetoric. Cuomo is doing this to kill off the working and middle-class so he can create a huge underclass of people who'll beg the elites like him for their basic needs. I bet by 2030 cars and trucks will be banned in NYC.

If a dimbulbcrat makes a law it will 1) cost more, 2) screw someone, or 3) both.

The people in NYC deserve everything that is coming to them. They are responsible for the leaders they have.

It’d be quite the lesson if the truckers boycotted delivering to Albany, and everybody would have to go out of town for their fast food and groceries. Think of all those lost sales taxes.

For the MTA? Isn’t that the city’s transit administration? Let’s see people try to haul fresh produce into Manhattan by subway.

D’Agostino’s shoppers hardest hit!

once state legislators hash out a budget deal that they promise will send cash flowing into the MTA.

Here's an idea, why not increase the rates for subway fares?
