Nobody wants Uber to be illegal. Everybody wants Uber to compete on a level playing field and "win" through genuine cost-lowering innovation -- y'know, like capitalism is supposed to work. But most if not all of Uber's price advantage has not actually come from innovation, but from VC-enabled price dumping, pushing costs from companies onto drivers, and being incorrectly classified.
If Uber still can't win once they're actually classified correctly, then they don't deserve to be a continuing business
