New, 23 comments

Ashton Kutcher, the dreamboat actor who also owns part of progressive car sharing service Uber along with a million other startups, totally slammed Miami's "bizarre, old, antiquated legislation" on Jimmy Kimmel Live for blocking Uber in favor of cartels, monopolies, the status quo, stagnation of an improving world, etc. "Basically it's like mafioso, like village mentality of like we're not gonna let the new guy in. Like in Miami" (he gives a particularly incredulous look as he says this) it doesn't exist because of some dumb old regulation that says it can't exist there." Yep. Do check out the video, above.
