Uber

[inreb]

So I have a stupid observation - If I was a cabby right now, I would stop being one and join Uber. Not pay for the License rental (if they own one then sell it), not pay for the ridiculous insurance for a cab and sell the taxi and buy a decent uber compliant car and call it a day.

No?

But wouldn't doing so undermine their current arguments? They are valid arguments

It's good to see taxi drivers getting F'ed.
Ha-ha, after nearly getting killed every season by a taxi, it's hard to find an ounce of sympathy

Wow, that's a lot of doctors and engineers who aren't seeing their full potential.

I fail to understand what you're trying to say in your statement. Please elaborate.

All valid points. There is no issue with Uber as long as intact is providing insurance. The only issue is a bunch of whining cabbies who dont wanna give up their monopoly on this city!

ya sure, no issues

there are issues galore, a level playing field and rules, to name a few,

Sorry buddy! Its 2015 and things change,
