This is stupid and another insult by city.
50 cents is less than what a stranger would give to a homeless begger on street.
Instead of fooling around, the city should stop registering more new cab drivers at Harold Washington college. because city is flooded with too many cabs. Give a decent meter increase it promised last year. stop the unfair credit card ordinance.
We make $45 working 12 hours, less than car washer or MCdonald worker and yet, we have no voice?
