San Francisco and L.A. sue Uber

I hope they move to my town. Do you see a problem with SF taxing Uber, then spending Uber's tax money to protect Uber's competitors by suing Uber?

There is nothing wrong with government following the law in due course. Government has the ability by law to tax and spend money to enforce existing laws. If you don't like that, I suggest you lobby to change the law.

If you flip that around, should paying taxes somehow insulate you from being sued?
