“Uber Black to your local car service”
I have seen plenty of Uber Black cars in my area. They are Lincoln Town Cars, just like the livery cabs. In fact, many are other companies’ livery cabs, with drivers making an extra buck on the side.
‘I assume when you say “in many cases,” you are again being intentionally misleading’
Correct. What I should have said is that I have NEVER found Uber to be less expensive than an ordinary livery cab. I was giving Uber the benefit of the doubt. Maybe at 4am some morning they would be less expensive.
“they have effectively deregulated a formerly regulated industry.”
They have done no such thing. Livery cab rates are unregulated. Uber in NYC is basically a livery cab service with a smartphone app.
“You don’t like Trump so you call him a bigot, but when you’re called on it, you aren’t even willing to post one post backing it up. “
You think Trump isn’t a bigot??? If YWN accepted outside news links I could fill page after page in the Coffee Room with examples.
“I haven’t been following the Trump news closely, and there’s a decent chance you’d convince me that he is.”
You admit you are an ignoramus yet you challenge me on that? Talk about chutzpah!
“Liberalism is a mental disorder”
When someone starts engaging in *ad hominem* attacks, I know that I have won the argument.
Besides, Trump is no conservative. He makes Bernie Sanders look like a small government advocate. Before you start accusing people of having a mental disorder you might want to examine your own inaccurate perception of reality.
