@markr@david_megginson They were implemented by a cartel that forced artificial scarcity to raise prices. Then they became an asset, then the forced artificial scarcity raised prices of the token asset that allowed taxi drivers to work so high that it was exploitative and then a new firm came in and broke the cartel in an exploitative way. Capitalism eating capitalism, and the workers always lose.
