Las Vegas cab companies deserve what they get

In response to Mick Akers’ March 4 article on Las Vegas cab companies seeking relief at the Legislature: No rule changes are needed because if the cab owners hadn’t cheated the public for years, we would not have needed Uber or Lyft. So thank you, Uber and Lyft, for giving us, the public, a fair shake.
