发帖数: 38600 | 2 Uber is an undeniably shitty deal for drivers. The Uber business model is
brilliant--from Uber's perspective, that is. Basically you dump all the
capital costs, and all the economic and personal-security risk onto the
driver, while skimming off a massive chunk of the revenues. The only value
Uber provides is (1) a glorified taxi-dispatcher service, and (2) fare
collection on behalf of the driver. Otherwise, that's it.
It's fashionable to say how economically wonderful it is that Uber has
disintermediated the local taxi monopolies, and their associated regulatory
inefficiencies. But local businesses have more incentive to actually care
for local taxi drivers and taxi passengers; Uber, meanwhile, is safely
ensconced in their Silicon Valley ivory tower, patting themselves on the
back for being "economy disrupters", and enjoying how they don't have to
give a flying fuck about actual drivers or actual passengers, because fuck
them and their retarded 19th century pre-Internet ways of being human. |
