Ive never been in an Uber, I try and use cabs out of principal.
It's worth noting that NYC's taxi medallion system is an egregiously corrupt racket dominated by the ultra-wealthy. I agree that rideshare services must adopt better labor practices, but the taxi industry in many parts of the country is just so much worse.

Anyone who has previously had to rely on cabs to get around should love the gently caress out of Uber.

I think cabs might be better in the bigger cities but outside of that they're a nightmare in comparison to Uber and Lyft. Anyone who shits all over Uber has apparently never had the pleasure of waiting 45 minutes for some scumbag to act pissed that you called him in the first place and then try the "the credit card machine broke" scam on you.

Uber is a bad company that fucks over its divers with malicious glee, so that's bad, but they also are a vehicle by which ultra wealthy VC investment dollars are directly transferred to ordinary people through Uber's inability to make money on any of its operations, so that's good.

I've used Uber in several major and medium size US cities and in Europe and never had an issue. That said their customer service is awful if you have a problem, along with their labor practices. I deleted their apps yesterday and will just use Lyft instead.

Not that there's not issues with racism in Minnesota but it's still a very unfriendly place to be a Nazi. A few years back some white supremacists tried to hold a convention in Duluth. Only to be outnumbered 25 to 1 by protesters who threw snowballs at them. Their convention consisted of being hit by snowballs and running to their cars so they could leave.


I'm hearing this in Garrison Keillor's voice, and then him ad-libbing the mob herding them into a skating rink and some kind of nazis on ice. In Lake Wobegon.

Also the Washington post article on Trumps budget summarized it as massive defense and infrastructure increases but no specified cuts apart from foreign aid (which is one of the smallest budget slices).

Gonna really shrink that govt and debt when combined with eventual tax cuts for the wealthy.
