- alokdhari 9y agoI should start using Uber more often if that is true.
- CydeWeys 9y agoHeh, it's kind of funny when you look at it like that. It's the opposite of the typical fleecing scheme, wherein a publicly owned company enriches the big guys at the little guys' expense (a la Enron). Uber is doing the opposite, since it isn't publicly traded and only has large rich investors: They're saving lots of little guys' money on car fares at the expense of the few big guy investors.
- pm90 9y agoFor now. Their plan, as far as I can see, is to totally dominate the market. Once, and if that happens, they will raise their prices, and once again the little guy's money will be going in the pockets of the big guys.
- SeanBoocock 9y agoOn a short enough timescale sure. On a longer one it is exactly the opposite: a play to redefine and own the future of automotive transportation.
