How is the illegal cab company doing things right? It's clearly monopolistic and therefore anti-consumer.

One cab driver blackmailed my friend for money to return a phone to her she left in the back seat. One of my friends was threatened to be raped by one and busted her wrist to get away from them. I’ve been physically threatened by cab drivers who want to get sex from women they think are alone. they are protected by a union which is clearly corrupt. I been left out in the cold with a busted ankle. They wouldn’t even call an ambulance for me.

Haven’t run into that shitty behaviour not even once with Uber.

Cabs are the mob.

Up with Uber. Down with cabs.
