Minneapolis. All I can say with all those out of work Muzzies and Africans is one word. Rickshaws!

Before ride share came to Mpls, there was a huge “fight” over opening up more taxi licenses. The cabbies didn’t want to give up anymore. Soon Lyft came to town, the cities let them drive and the rest is history.

Congrats to the city council members who get free cars and insurance and to the democrat party for raising the costs. Now the drivers will have no job and the people who use Uber and Lyft will have no ride.....

Let’s see they can take a more expensive taxi just as was planned in California where the taxi companies bribed the city gov’t there. To coverup the bribes from the taxi companies the democrats had the minimum wage increased to $20.

It spread and now many many thousands of people are out of work as. Now the fast food prices are too high and the employees are being replaced by robots and people who take your order at the drive thru are from out of state.

I guess Seattle and NY don’t care about gouging their car-less citizens to make up for the increased wage hikes...

They use immigrants for drivers? Never mind. I was thinking illegals, and I didn’t know if Minneapolis allowed illegals to get driver licenses.

New York City has a proud tradition of black market everything.

That is how they survive leftist rule and rules.
