The worst thing about so-called climate initiatives is that they somehow always tax people into oblivion for doing things as common as breathing. This is why Trump slammed Gov. Kathy Hochul’s $9 NYC congestion pricing for reasons that these people will never be able to logically explain.

According to the New York Post:

President-elect Donald Trump told The Post on Thursday that he opposes Gov. Kathy Hochul’s revived plan for congestion pricing for vehicles that drive through certain parts of New York City, calling it the “most regressive tax known to womankind.”

The Democratic governor is proposing a $9 daily toll — after an earlier plan for $15 fees went down in flames amid a middle- and working-class outcry.

“I have great respect for the Governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, and look forward to working with her to Make New York and America Great Again. But I strongly disagree with the decision on the congestion tax,” said Trump, 78.

So I just checked all the documents in American history and there was never a section where it allows state governments to find ways to tax Americans just for going about their day-to-day.

“It has never worked, but especially so with a city, town, or village that is trying to come back from very rough times, which can certainly be said of New York City. It will put New York City at a disadvantage over competing cities and states, and businesses will flee.”

Why would people choose to start a business in New York when it’s one of the least tax-friendliest places in the country? And if things weren't bad enough, all these people do is find ways to get you to fork over your hard-earned cash while they give it away to foreign nationals.

“Not only is this a massive tax to people coming in, it is extremely inconvenient from both driving and personal bookkeeping standards. It will be virtually impossible for New York City to come back as long as the congestion tax is in effect,” he said.

“It will hurt workers, families, and businesses, but in particular, anything to do with jobs. It is the most regressive tax known to womankind (man!).”

This will hurt the people struggling to make ends meet the most and it’s tyrannical that the government demands cash from you to somehow fix things that don't exist.

What? Is this supposed to finally allow the government to control the direction of the wind?

How exactly does this "take into account the needs of all workers?"

The New York government has mastered the art of controlling things that should never be controlled by the government.

Don’t these people have other things to do? Aren’t they too busy stealing squirrels and raccoons to care about “congestion?”

These people could not get more pathetic if they tried.

What's next? A tax on breathing?
