Is there any way around the problem ? Is this G.W.Bush's problem or do we have to take actions ourselves ?

I don't know. I think we could have used these "Clouseau's" at the UN when their silly fops were trying to enforce ten years of weapons inspections. At least they got a couple of results.🙄

It's sound like they need more legit taxi companies. I'd say the law of supply and demand is at work here.

I would say that it looks like socialism at it's best. The idea of letting anyone who wants to work harder and better drive the slackards out of business never even occurs to them. That is because they would have to face the terrible concept of greed. Imagine! If you are willing to figure a better way to serve the public and get rich, you will be punished.

Absolutely - abolish all the laws preventing people doing what they like.
Get children out working again, abolish the limits on working hours and the minimum wage.
Who needs health and safety laws anyway.
All gets in the way of the free market.

Now you're talking. That will do it.

Or you could limit yourself to "adults" competing freely against other "adults" to see who does the best job.

It's probably easier for commies to change the subject than to speak such horrors. Do you think mr. "kill a kid per day" stalin lover?

Hmm. A limit on the free market - welcome on board, comrade.
