It reminds me of how I've heard some people say that Target is a more expensive Walmart, where you're paying extra to avoid Walmart shoppers.

- sqeaky 10y agoI was actually trying to compare this to things like on Uber how you can get a normal ride or an XL with cargo room. Or how can pay a premium for a taxi ride that has fewer stops and is more direct than a bus ride which has more passengers and stops. Going to another city, you can fly fast or bus there for cheap. We already have this system, just not on stuff we consider basic quality of life.
