Un Tranquilo Refugio en el PaZIHfico

Regarding you comment “This could help make local taxi prices come down and be more competitive. Locally we have over 600 taxis authorized to work in Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa. Too many.” Who issues taxi car licenses? The city? Who sets the taxi cab rates? If there are too many taxis and Uber is added, this diminishes the amount of money per cab driver. Will Uber vehicles need taxi licenses or can any just get a Uber franchise and offer their services. Who determines whether an Uber car and driver meet any standards. Will women be guaranteed no Uber driver has a sexual assault charge? Will cartelish people move in and muscle out the taxis? I have read people stating the taxi rates here are high compared to other tourist spots. I am also informed rent is higher here.

If I had passed grade 12 mathematics I would have studied economics. Alas I was granted 50% on the basis my new job as a black jack dealer required minimal mathematics.
