Oversupply might mean lower prices (or easier to get a ride) but it also means it's almost impossible for any driver to make a living. That leaves you with drivers who can only drive part time/as a second job while old fashioned full-time/one job taxi drivers slowly get driven out of the market. What's good for some consumers isn't always good for society.

- pmyteh 6y agoJust FWIW this isn't at all how British unions work. Closed shops are illegal and workers are selected by the employer, not by the union. Seniority might come into play if a workplace with a union recognition agreement wants to implement redundancies, but even then the old 'last in, first out' principle is rarely used because employers would normally rather shed their expensive older workers.
