>if your competitor flaunts the law
The law in question being simply that they cannot compete at all.
>does not pay local taxes
They pay all sorts of taxes in my jurisdiction from day one, and still kicked the taxi industry's ass.
- jacquesm 4y agoGood for you. That's not the case here. Taxi companies employ people, pay wage taxes, sales tax, have their vehicles inspected once per year and in general are marginal business, except for the few in the biggest cities where it is a good business. Uber only went for the easy wins, siphoned off a large chunk of the profits in return for people working without a safety net and who do not pay into the social system, which works fine until it doesn't and then society has to pick up the tab.
