Amazing how much cheaper it is then a regular city cab.

I'm going to say FF because of what I've seen so far in Chile. It's caused quite the debate here, the cab drivers going on strike in Santiago today to protest for what they percieve to be unfair competition.

The ironic result of that, of course, was that traffic congestion was reportedly down by a lot in the capital (even making the hated bus system look efficient), which doesn't quite help the regular cab companies in their quest.

The cab industry in many cities is awful, but I support them in principle. I do not support companies like Uber which perpetuate the part-time-ization and 1099-ization of America.

FF for providing superior service and defeating the taxi monopoly.

As a lover of the free market, I say there aren't many things that are better for the economy than the market-driven collapse of a monopoly.

Oh give it a rest. Like the normal taxi companies have never had rapes. For God's sake, the South Florida taxi racket is among the worst in the world.

Uber is not a taxicab service. Therefore, the government may not regulate is as one.

It is a taxi cab service. You're acting like people saying that "fiscal optimisation" isn't tax evasion.

It isn't tax evasion, if it doesn't break the law. I am a man of great respect for technicalities.
If you want to collect their taxes, you've got to attack the loopholes, not the fiscal optimizers.
