Call me crazy, but I live in both New York City and Chicago (NYU and originally from Chicago so I return often) and I have noticed that cabs are SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper here in New York than they are in Chicago and I have long wondered why exactly this is (New York cab drivers are also noticeably better at their jobs). Higher living cost my ass... please, stop complaining. Try living in Manhattan or the other boroughs on an even smaller salary and THEN you can talk about a fare increase.</p>
