Fascinating to see HN's best brightest and their view of the rule of law. How is it good for democracy if a well-funded corporation can flout the law by its very existence? People make the excuse that taxi regulations are unjust. But it is still the law, and for Uber it didn't matter whether the law was unjust, only that it was in their way. These guys are not crusaders for justice, they are profit-seekers who decided the law didn't apply to them and went about their business until they amassed enough power that they could not be stopped.
