    These bike rentals exist in place of a public option and can only function due to the public infrastructure

    What's the point here, that goes for all types of transportation?

        The point is that when a private company creates a "service" that stands in place of a public option, and that "service" worsens the infrastructure for the rest of the people using it, then it is a bad thing.

        I agree with you entirely here, it just also absolutely goes for the cars that the twitter post doesn't seem to mind.
