         lol yeah, I opened the Uber app the other day to $100 fares, remembered a time when I could get anywhere in SF at any time for like $5.

            $5 flat group rides, $8 flat single rides anywhere in the city. The glory days.

               Everyone happily paid the way for the behemoth that squeezed everyone out of competition and then started recoup the ROI aggressively, and no one recognizes oneself as a part of the problem, just like in the current AI pandemonium.

                     Corps don’t act on their own. The same people that work in corps are consumers
