This UBER shit is very dumb, dangerous, and a step back.
In the past anyone could give anyone a ride. No certification, real standards, or taxes paid. Obviously this leads to problems...
The uber drivers put pressure on the cab industry and put full time cab drivers out of work by charging less because these uber drivers are only part time.
Present day, these uber drivers are now striking because their pay is low. They don't understand that they put out of business their only competition.
The cab companies were certified by the state and acted like unions almost to guarantee a safe experience AND make money.
These libertarian ideas do more harm than good, and make us learn lessons over again.
