Warning: Rant Ahead
Today is the final day of a two-day strike by NYC cab drivers in protest of a city order that they install credit-card readers and global-positioning systems in their vehicles. Oh my, the poor babies. In retaliation, the cabs that are still on the street are charging double their zone rates for all fares. As far as I’m concerned, anybody who pays that jacked-up fare is an idiot and all the striking cabdrivers can bite me.
