> Now we have the same rates we did before with cabs but none of the nice regulations on them, and none of the decent paying jobs. I ride with rideshare/taxi 10+ times per week for work, I try to make all 10 of those rideshare. I'll keep doing it if Uber starts to cost more than taxi. Every time I have to get in a taxi, I'm reminded why it was so easy to disrupt in the first place. Shitty cars, rude drivers, 'broken' card machines, drivers have no idea where to go and inexplicably try to avoid using GPS. Taxi driver picked me up from the airport in my home city and tried to take me on a 20+ min out of the way route until I told him I'm going to my fucking house. 'Oh sorry I thought this way is quicker because of the traffic'. This doesn't happen with rideshare, and drivers are usually much nicer. I'm happy to pay extra for that. People who keep saying that the only thing Uber did was undercut the existing taxi industry, have no clue what they're talking about.
