I'm just saying, if the street is going to be worthless anyway the public could at least get some value out of it. But progressives care more about the homeless than the handicapped so instead we get trash on the streets and useful things going bankrupt.

At least in California my experience has been that Bird was doomed after the handicapables decided it was an issue. Great service, very convenient, good density, etc. Then a bunch of regulations passed limiting them to certain parking zones to solve some issue for the handicapped community and now they're basically worthless in terms of convenience. I mean the streets are littered with needles, tents and homeless but god forbid we leave something useful on them.
