>>> Why so negative. I like how Europeans/Chinese/Everyone stands behind their companies and expect them to succeed globally. USA on other hand is bent on destroying/defaming their own. > uber and lyft deserve it. I use lyft multiple times/week. I don't. Why do you think I should stand behind them, and overlook their ethical lapses, because I'm an American?

What are ethical lapses against lyft? I googled it and found something about spying.

  > What are ethical lapses against lyft? I googled it and found something about spying. I have an answer for that, but you're dodging the question so I won't provide it yet. Why do you think I should "stand by" American companies like Uber, whose unethical behavior across many different domains is well documented, like you claim the "Europeans/Chinese/Everyone" do with theirs?

Your premise for opposition is based on this. > unethical behavior across many different domains is well documented which i don't agree with( or I don't have the complete picture). I use lyft all the time and I have family who are uber drivers. Do you not use uber/lyft?

      I'm trying to get you to unpack your sentiment that Americans should support Uber and Lyft for nationalistic reasons. If you're going to dodge that, we don't really have much to talk about. > which i don't agree with( or I don't have the complete picture). I'm thinking it's the latter. >>>>> uber and lyft deserve it. I use lyft multiple times/week. > I use lyft all the time and I have family who are uber drivers. Do you not use uber/lyft? This idea of yours that use or personal utility justifies support of an company is pretty problematic. It's basically the ends justify the means, coupled with a thorough ignorance of and disinterest in the means.

I will answer the first, Americans should support their local companies because their economic well being depends on it. Same exact reason Chinese support their companies. I want Indians using uber not ola because latter would be of no benefit to me. Is that a satisfactory response?
