>>1386761>So the number that isn't reported is high?Yes, there's difference between crimes with police reports fully filled out and "crimes" that happened but the police couldn't get to and just jotted down that something fucking happened but nothing else
>What business is going to go bankruptA huge chunk of businesses are barely profitable so 18 or 36 a day just to get there on time is a tough pill that can sink plenty of them

>You're owed jack shit from governments in places you don't liveActually, if it affects regular flowing commerce between states, then absolutely
>People driving through Manhattan aren't stopping at businessesAnon do you know what a commute is? I wasn't referring to passing drivers. I was referring to people who have to go to work anyway, not some fucking tourist who doesn't have a car anyway. Most "foot traffic" is from people who are in the area due to working there.
>the reason won't disappearNo, but it's disincentivized. More people will work from home (ruining businesses overall and decreasing your foot traffic) and new businesses will be incentivized to be outside the zone if possible, spreading the traffic anyway and declining downtown's output.
>modify their behavior by taking public transportkek expect latenesses to be through the fucking roof, tanking revenue. Also crime. Cars will always be the personal way to get around without conforming to whims of others.
>generating even more revenueNot how it works. There isn't anyone new coming to the zone that wouldn't hav before, but there are definitely people who won't be coming now.
Yet again you hacks demonstrate you lack of monetary incentives and pretend that you live in the US.
