Couldn't a "medallion cab" franchise that licenses tools (technology) to existing city cab drivers be created? So cabbies in Massachusetts can spend the tax money on their own uber via a franchise. The franchise can be repeated all over for the "old industry" - In every big city. So a user could choose their "Dominoes" app and they would be getting a legacy cab, not uber-lyft. And the customer would support existing men and women whose jobs are threatened. And like dominoes pizza, behind the scenes is a local owner (or local group of cabbies) that has to follow their own rules. A cabbie could be hailed with 4 fingers and a thumb up or via two thumb touch. Have cake and eat it too.
