Uber. It's a "taxi service except about half the price because it starts over with no unions". If it's so profitable, why didn't other taxi services do it instead? Is the whole reason because it lowers the bar for taxi drivers to be hired, thus reaching those who would be fine with the lower pay?
- thaumasiotes 9y ago> If it's so profitable, why didn't other taxi services do it instead? Because that was illegal. This isn't a secret - it's constantly mentioned by pro-Uber and con-Uber groups. Reimagine it as "it's half the price because it is not the beneficiary of a government-granted monopoly on its business".
