In an earlier posting about the taxi strike, a commenter, who goes by the name Experienced Cabbie/Owner, had this to say:


Nobody is addressing the real issue. There is nothing wrong with accepting credit cards and any of the other things the Service Enhancemants do.
The way we were forced to sign contracts without having a chance to read and object to them is what everyone should be up in arms about. The hidden clauses and the leagaleeze will come back later to haunt everyone.
We were all duped!!

Way back in May of 2006, the Voice's Tom Robbins saw this current storm brewing and provided an inside account of how the TLC's handled the GPS contract.
