Ride-sharing services, like Uber and Lyft, provide transportation options that can be subsidized to make them more affordable for low-income individuals. Proponents argue that it increases mobility for low-income individuals, reduces reliance on personal vehicles, and can reduce traffic congestion. Opponents argue that it is a misuse of public funds, may benefit ride-sharing companies more than individuals, and could discourage public transportation use.

No, but subsidize publicly owned transport instead for low income individuals.
@9YLH5TZ 1mo1MO
No, the government should expand public transport networks and reduce public transport costs
@9QZJSXK5mos5MO
Concessions and/or assistance should be available for people who need it (eg disabled & elderly) without having to ride share as it's not always applicable.
@9QSVZXT6mos6MO
No, use any funds that may go to this for public transport
