Brainerd area taxi has been in service for 25 years in Brainerd and monopolizes the business

The relatively high cost of taxi service in the Brainerd area is typically attributed to the economics of providing transportation in a less densely populated, regional setting. Unlike major metropolitan areas, taxi companies in the Brainerd Lakes Area often deal with lower overall passenger volume and greater distances between stops (deadhead time), which increases operational costs per fare. Furthermore, running a service that often covers the entire Brainerd Lakes region, including resorts and the regional airport, requires higher expenses for fuel, vehicle maintenance, insurance, and paying drivers to cover this wider service area, especially when operating 24/7 or during peak tourist seasons. The lack of high-volume competition, as seen in larger cities, also limits downward pressure on pricing.

Join the freelancers union if you’re self-employed

The Freelancers Union is a non-profit organization dedicated to advocating for the rights and interests of independent workers across the United States. While not a traditional labor union due to legal distinctions for independent contractors, it provides a crucial support system for its hundreds of thousands of members—which include graphic designers, writers, contractors, and other self-employed professionals. Membership is free, and the organization offers a range of resources, including access to curated insurance plans, legal tools (like a free contract creator), networking opportunities, and policy advocacy. Notably, the Freelancers Union successfully championed the landmark "Freelance Isn't Free" law in New York City and other locations, which provides legal protections against client non-payment.
