        So, restricting bathroom usage = good. Regulating rideshare companies = bad. You make no sense.

        And this reeks of "big government." The PEOPLE of Austin voted on these regulations. Butt out.

        All Uber had to do was comply with the regulations, fingerprints for background checks. Since they didn't, they fucked themselves over.

        So you endorsing the state government to overturn local regulation - one done out of concern for *your* safety - is so fuckin' hypocritical

        Is Uber required to provide service to the disabled in Texas, or is that "voluntary" as well?

        Now let's remove those outdated dealer restrictions so Tesla can sell cars like it's been the 21st century for over a decade and a half.

        Big state government strikes again from so called "conservatives". Funny how that works.
