Cabbies in Chicago are asking city leaders for several fare increases reports the Tribune this morning. Among them is a vomit tax. Says one driver: “”If someone throws up in the back of a cab, it’s no laughing matter to the cabdriver, who now has to take two hours to detail the cab.”

Puke in a cab and you have to cough up an extra $50 to cover the driver’s cleaning costs.

Now THIS is a way for the city to make extra money, especially with the way people party it up in the Meatpacking District night after night.
