Uber is just as, if not more, expensive than this. y’all complain about everything. Subway the same price if it’s that rough for ya lol

Y’all want your paychecks to reflect inflation but no one else smh

Uber operates on a massive consumer surplus for a reason.

The ease of access and convenience they supply trumps yellow cabs. The ridership numbers going in opposite directions for each, supports that.

The reason is also tied to the price of medallions in order to operate as a taxi vs the ease of renting a car for Uber. Can’t forget that

It’s also tied to the abysmal working conditions and lack of employment protections for Uber drivers
