Maybe Uber is different in Toronto, but in SF it's basically making use of unallocated livery, i.e., Town Cars, etc. (with a useless taxi hailing service) I'm not sure riding in a "luxury" vehicle with a private driver is a public necessity. Poor people don't use Uber. Poor people very rarely use taxis. Poor people ride the bus or walk. And yes, it sucks to be poor.
