Doze guyz wouldn't see a change. Congestion pricing would only affect users of the DOT bridges from Brooklyn and Queens, and those coming in from the north; everyone else is already paying.

Sigh! As if I have any enthusiasm for parochial holy wars within the Five Boros! For myself? "Congestion pricing"? I'm agin' it!

I have this nagging perception there are some competing, large forces in play here. One would like Manhattan to be as business friendly as possible.
(As it doesn't take rocket scientists or highly paid consultants to advise on myriad reasons to avoid any relocation or new startup Manhattan based.)
The competing camp urges a tourist paradise, even bigger and better than any Disney or Busch Gardens schemes. (Consider the 42nd Street, Jolly
Trolley insanity.)...

Sigh! Folks! Give peace a chance!
