taxi workers alliance

The taxi industry internationally is basically the same.  It is setup to avoid  labor laws and avoid unionism using  the big lie of being independent, free, with the ability to make as much as you want.  So I love those whom expose this industry for what it is.  Here is a special report from Austin Texas hot off the press.

DAN GERINGER's article in today's Daily News is a case of bad journalism. Geringer doesn't explain the merits of HB 1914 and how in its entirety, the bill is connected and allied with a cause greater than one alone, that both communities (people with disabilities and taxi drivers) suffer because the few are making big bucks by exploiting the many.

Thanks to everyone who came out to the public hearing last Friday March 19th at City Hall.  MMP was there along with representation from every group in MMP.
