I do. But I also understand that it's not very black and white.
India is going through a very weird phase in its labor markets. I can hire someone to draft architectural drawings for me in AutoCAD for under $150/month, while a driver in Delhi costs nearly $250/month. An Uber driver, meanwhile, can make upwards of $1200/month.
There seem to be no established patterns.
- throwaway344 12y agoWouldn't the market imbalance of the price of Uber drivers vs regular drives be resolved naturally? Why don't regular drives switch to Uber?
- puranjay 12y agoThey should, but there are two problems: 1. You need your own car to be a Uber driver. Most regular drivers don't have their own cars. They usually drive for taxi operators who own the cars. 2. Most regular drivers don't have the financial literacy or even the bank accounts, tax documents, etc. needed to get a car loan.
