A 15% to 30% cut of all revenue punishes small businesses and makes many businesses infeasible, especially low margin businesses, as that 30% cut cuts into margins. Loss of competition hurts entire markets, including consumers.

agreed. but neither Lyft nor Uber are not small businesses. they also just exploit their workers.

Yes, they do, but the problems they're getting publicity for are the same problems many small businesses owners have who won't get any publicity.

the negative publicity regarding Evil Corp A is certainly a good thing, agreed. and like I said in another reply, I tend to try to support the smaller businesses _outside_ of the stores, knowing they would benefit that much more.
