Ride-sharing services, like Uber and Lyft, provide transportation options that can be subsidized to make them more affordable for low-income individuals. Proponents argue that it increases mobility for low-income individuals, reduces reliance on personal vehicles, and can reduce traffic congestion. Opponents argue that it is a misuse of public funds, may benefit ride-sharing companies more than individuals, and could discourage public transportation use.

No, they should invest in public transportation like buses, trains, and subways
@9MYQ4756 days6D
Regardless, the government should invest in more walkable cities and public transportation.
@9MYKLBQ6 days6D
No, and it should instead fund public transportation
@9MY56NM6 days6D
No, the the government should subsidize public transportation, not private companies
@9MTZNC41wk1W
Yes, but don’t subsidize the services themselves lest the funds be misused. Instead provide incentives to consumers to make use of ride-sharing services in areas where public transportation is inefficient
@9MSNM831wk1W
No, I think transportation accessibility it a critical contemporary right, but is better addressed through Jaunt programs, public transportation subsidies, and incentivizing employers to provide ride-share programs & other transport services.
