Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for March 18, 2019

Small price to pay for peace and quiet.

Nice way to monetize a withheld opinion.

Back then the NYC mayor was David Dinkins.

If you figure on adding a tip to the fare, that’s part of it right there.

She’s got the system down pat now. A real pro. Good thing Uber is still well into the future.

Some cartoons are timeless.

JJ is taxing even when she’s taxi-ing!

Oh, God, you don’t think there are taxi drivers to there who have the same deal to keep quiet about their opinions on Trump, do you?

I suppose taxi drivers have a lonely life on the job. I know they drive people around all the time, but there is no real connection.

Substitute “…how Trump is doing” for “…how the mayor is doing” and we’re in today’s world.Was Giuliani the Mayor of NYC way back then?

Worth every penny.

Coercion?!

I think a $5.00 cab ride to JFK would have been a heck of a bargain, even in 1992.

A $5.00 flat fee should be: in addition to the cab fee.

Will this work with religious solicitors? “For a $5 donation will you go away and never come back?”

She knows how to make a passenger Happy.
