here is my opinion. taxis have been a shady business (esp in eastern europe) for way too long. something like uber was simply bound to come and shake things up. uber offered a customer friendly service and employed people that needed to earn some extra cash. but here is the problem: they were too good. they killed the taxi industry, whose workers didnt drive taxis for extra cash but to provide for their familys. so now you have taxi drivers without work. who do they turn to for employment? they turn to uber/bolt or whoever killed their previous employer. so now uber doesnt employ people who just need to earn extra cash but drivers who use this occupation as sole means to provide for their family. and you know what? uber sucks as that type of employer
