Uber has officially announced its launch in Swansea, providing details on how to order an Uber in the city, including pricing information. The arrival of Uber has raised concerns among local taxi firms about the potential impact on their business. In a separate development, the Minnesota Senate Taxes Committee has approved sports betting legislation with significant changes, such as prohibiting in-game wagering and doubling the tax rate to 20% to offset an expected revenue decrease from $40 million to $18 million annually.
Because #Minneapolis voted in an ignorant, short-sighted, politically extreme city council, THE ENTIRE TWIN CITIES METRO is losing access to @Uber and @lyft. Taxi rates will skyrocket. More people will drive while impaired. This is a disaster. https://t.co/fJScLkb9rA
'What will happen when all the taxis are gone?' Consumers are not looking ahead to the day when there are no taxis left, and Uber can charge whatever it wants in a market with no real competition, says one airport taxi driver. #Opinion https://t.co/PZ2Hp8uYSe
We get a garbage sports betting bill and push uber/lyft out of the Twin Cities in the same day... sweet. https://t.co/4Kv1FZvIir
