You are full of shit.  Capitulate to the right????  You mean compromise so actual shit gets done?

Unfortunately, as we saw in the last election, too many self-styled “true liberals” are only willing to vote when they get “their candidate.” As a country we are getting fucked by a combination of the evil monolithic GOP and the whiny baby infighting far left wing.

Thanks comrade.  Collect your 5 rubles for this post.

Most of the jobs performed today have no real meaning.  We need basic income and a change in world view (and a shit ton of birth control).

Waiting for politicians to build out public transportation?  They never ever will and if they do, it won’t solve *your* specific transportation need.

Taxis outside of NY and London are a shit-show. Regulate taxi services so they can’t be run as independent contractors and have at least one taxi company give a fuck about cleanliness of their vehicles and the sanity of their drivers.

They subsidize the drivers’ take. And the drivers don’t work for them.

God’s design???? WTF time-line are we even living in????

They don’t compete with cab companies on price, they compete on ride liquidity and not having shitty cab drivers and cabs themselves.

And yet people spend billions a year on uber rides and the market is still nowhere close to saturated.

It only goes away if competitors retain subsidies.

must be your area...hundreds of ubers have been great for me (like 10x better than the average cab ride)

only the wealthy will own autonomous avs, us plebs will just use whatever av service we sign up for

not upside for automakers and could be a huge downside for rural inhabitants

How would you change it? Oh let me guess, you are named emperor?

Actually quite different, the dot-coms actually never had a plan to achieve a profit (didn’t happen until advertising spend caught up with the eyeballs).

If you have a growth profile on your bottom line like Lyft has on their top line, your math checks out.

That’s a misconception. The answer is a guaranteed income but this is an economy wide (hell global for that matter) issue.

For god’s sake why?  The schools’ reputations have been massively tarnished by this, and they have every right (I would say obligation) to kick any student out that was admitted as the result of fraud (known by the student or not).

They should all be kicked out and any prior degrees should be revoked.  Also, remember there are hundreds of additional students that were part of the scheme, not just the ones with parents caught up in the FBI investigation.
