> You are likely and upper class US citizen who looks down on things like taxis and the bus.

Lolno. I own a car, but commute every day by bus. I am middle class but, surprise surprise, still have places I want to get to. The only success I have ever had with taxis is if I ambush them when they are waiting outside of airports and train stations. Calling them is always a unmitigated shit-fest. This is both Seattle and Philadelphia. Philadelphia is significantly worse; cabs are unhailable (unless you ambush them at 30th street station) and they hang up on you when you give them an address in west or north philly.

> Or maybe your issue is that there are too many non whites driving taxis.

Eat shit and fuck off.
