[quote=Anonymous]Question ... what did people do in your neighborhood to get around or go to the Metro before the days of Uber? Walking, biking etc.? Call me cheap but I would allow enough time to walk from point A to B or wait 20 minutes for the next bus, while my AP doesn't think twice and Uber instead. Maybe it's a generational thing. When I was younger and had very limited income, I never would take a cab and instead just walk, bus, or subway, even in the blizzard - to save some money. When someone else is paying the bills, it's a no-brainer to use Uber or cab without a 2nd thought. I say give her a transportation allowance that covers a few round-trips every week, but she needs some skin in the game to make cost-effective choices. It is not a blank check.[/quote]
