My unpopular opinion is that Uber is one of the better things to happen to the economy. So many regulations and corporate/government giants stomping out growing businesses basically means that you can align everything perfectly in your startup and still fail. Uber found a loophole and now I get to travel to work without buying a $60k vehicle.
Your wish for Uber to die is elitist and comes from a place of misunderstanding why Uber is a good thing to many, many people, startups and workers alike. Just because you dread the idea of being driven by a taxi driver without a permit doesn't mean I have to as well.
