So, it's good for the government to give money to a service operating at artificially lowered prices and whose business model has been to flout laws as far as they can get away with it?

If the company name triggers you, just pretend it's a bus or a train voucher.

You can have competition between providers for those vouchers.

That would make it even worse, a race to the bottom.

WHAT? Since when free money from government in already economically depressed area will "make it even worse"?

Worse compared to that? Channeling more money to landlords in SF and NY?

It's basically people on early disability choosing between whisky on payday and making extra buck on hauling other people like them around.

Face it, many less-fortunate areas are on the bottom already even in developed nations.
