You know Uber and Lyft are based in one of the most liberal enclaves in the country... and it is also probably the most entrepreneurial region in the country.


Yeah, cities fight things like Uber, Lyft, and AirBnB... because they're pressured by traditional cab companies, hotels, etc. I'm not so sure "liberalism" or "progressivism" is what is spurring their opposition. :?

It's kind of like Republicans in NC, for example, fighting Tesla b/c Tesla sells direct to the consumer. :twocents: :mrgreen:


Wait...this is about the evil Liberals....my bad


Meanwhile, you can now visit a Tesla showroom in Charlotte (but can't buy a car there) but you can visit a Tesla showroom in Raleigh and buy a car from that one. :suspicious: :dunce:

It's just another example of how the Left eats its own sometimes.

Is this on a per capita basis? If not then it is just as meaningful as claiming hilldog should be president because of the popular vote. :coffee:

I'm not arguing that Hillary should have been president... so, not sure why you're even bringing that up. Just a reflex response? :lol:
