*all cities
Not all, they were kicked out from Hungary - although that was less a victory of workers' rights rather than that of the taxi driver union.
A victory for a union is a victory for workers rights.
I noticed when I visited Vancouver, BC there were no uber's or lyft's available, however - uber eats was available. And most restaurants I walked past had uber eats signs in the windows saying they did delivery. And this was in like 2018
Every argument in this thread is basically taxi protectionism.
I mean, I see you personally talking about taxis a lot
I don't like protectionism.
Kinda just sound like a conspiracy nut finding arguments where there are none with people who are just talking about the article
That's certainly a take.
You're like... The only one talking about taxis, everyone else is talking about worker protection
That's nonsensical, since workers drive for both.
Taxi companies tend to be smaller, more locally owned businesses with actual employees instead of "contractors." Why would we *not side with them?
Edit: missed an important word
