Bingo. Someone gets it.

When I claim that NYC politicians mostly sit around thinking of ways to raise revenue in order to fund their welfare state, I'm not exaggerating. They can't keep on raising taxes outright because it's unpopular, might put their campaign funding in jeopardy, and there are just less and less earners to tax . So instead, they come up with revenue raising schemes.

You mean Vision Zero..... which to me meant trying to get everyone's IQ to be the same as Bill DeBlasio who started all this crap...... DeBlasios IQ is 0.

The end goal is to slowly make driving a vehicle illegal, so I'll continue calling it Vehicle Zero. It's a more appropriate name then whatever "Vision Zero" is suppose to mean.

Love how the Democrats use the guise of ”saving lives” and even going as far as naming the bill after a kid that died when their ulterior motive is to kill the automobile.
The main issue why the deaths are going up is that drivers in NYC simply cannot drive, and they drive more dangerously and risky compared to other areas. It seems like some of them just legitimately do not know the rules of the road either. If you ever drive into NYC you will see all kinds of crazy sh*t happening literally every time you drive. You can probably see a dangerous driving moron roughly every 10-15 blocks, and that includes outer boroughs as well. NYC is literally the only place in the US where people honk at you if you come to a complete stop on a stop sign lol. With the way these people are driving, even 10 mph is too much to handle, they should just remove gas pedals from their cars.
