> We really need pro-competition legislation to stop this sort of predatory capitalism. That's a non-sequitur

  >"We really need pro-competition legislation to stop this sort of predatory capitalism." This conclusion refers to the idea of VCs(billionaires) subsidizing rides in order to remove the entrenched player(taxis.) How is that a non-sequitur?

    It sounds like the parent poster is saying that "pro-competition legislation" would prevent a new company (funded by VCs) from competing with an entrenched industry (taxis). I think the confusion stems from saying pro-competition legislation will prevent competition.

    What's bad about VC billionaires giving cheap rides to other people?

      It wasn't my comment. I was just commenting on it not being a non-sequitur.
