      ...but if they don't fit that trip profile, then it doesn't matter how rich, young, or naturalized they are: it won't be useful for them.

      "Not because people don't want to ride" Are you sure about that? Especially since routes have been cut and modernization hasn't happened?pic.twitter.com/R5yIHpB2e6

      Clearly the *absence* of pressure from Lyft et al hasn't allowed bus transit to thrive or even keep up. Lack of alternatives...

      The threat of governments cutting service due to hypothetical but not actual alternatives from Lyft is real, but if you know those types...

      ...of local government, you also know that they will use any excuse in the book. "More people biking now? Great, let's cut transit." etc

      The author's premise here seems a lot closer to "I would rather transit be miserable to ride and constantly losing money..."

      "...than for it to be in the hands of the evil, wicked, private sector." Well, as a guy who commutes 2 hours a day by bus, I disagree.

      I don't expect Lyft is interested in, or even capable of, replacing MUNI or other transit providers. It's not going for the same market.

      But if they did, and if their transit was more pleasant to ride and less expensive to operate--how, exactly, would that be a bad thing?

          Safety laws are important. Also, public buses are generally comfortable, which makes the experience tolerable; wouldn't want more tiny seats

          Safety is important--if laws improve safety, good, if not, no point to them. Buses are hit-or-miss for comfort in my experience...

          ...but who said anything about more tiny seats? Seems out of left field here.

          Look, the future is bad, OK? The future means people will be able to get away from prog shock troops. And maybe people not from NYC get rich
