Bribing People for Support in Pittsburgh

The local scumbag electric scooter company in Pittsburgh is paying people to write letters of support.

People elsewhere have gotten tired of those "self-service" scooters because of the conduct of the riders.

The Pittsburgh City Council should toss out every letter of support for e-scooters as being as valid as an NRA postcard.

  1. Back in the 60s I built a scooter like that using motor and motorcycle battery from a PopTronis article. It could do about 6mph.

    Oh damn the pavement rash at 6mph still hurts like hell! Gave that
    whole mess a pass for a Honda S90 and a brain bucket.


    Eck!

  2. IDK, it’s kinda nice to see old fashioned vote buying/influence tactics.

  3. Amateurs. They should have cut out the middlemen. After all, they just need to bribe a few council members with some nice campaign contributions to get what they want.

  4. The scooters are a great idea with a flawed execution. The great idea is that we don't need to clog up central cities with seas of cars. The flawed execution... well, we've seen that, already.
