I don’t think “throwing more money” will fix the MTA, but I do think less money will make things worse. I do think there is an enormous amount of deferred maintenance that makes things more expensive to run.
I do think people respond to tolls by driving less. I know I do.

Less money? That money was never there to begin with so how is it less without it? And people who have no choice but to drive for work MUST pay. If you only knew the amount of money that will be coming out of the pockets of people who aren’t really doing well financially( delivery drivers are making Pennie’s on the dollar now), I don’t think you would be for this. It just doesn’t make any sense why non drivers are promoting this BS money grab by the city. This is NYC, traffic will never ease up no matter how much they charge to get in.
