End socialism for cars? Alternatively: If car owners don't like this proposal, maybe let New Yorkers store anything they want on the street for free in the spaces that are currently designated as free car storage.

Picnic tables, hot tub, trampoline, small shipping container...

Non-driving New Yorkers elected Zohran

Car ownership was the strongest statistical factor predicting whether a New Yorker voted for Cuomo or Mamdani. More than race, age, home ownership, anything.
