Doesn't matter how much you pay, you'll still get times when demand for rides exceeds number if drivers on the road. You gotta realise I've done trips like this by taxi before Uber existed: the cost was *always* this high & wait times much longer (also worse vehicle condition) https://twitter.com/colonelpopcorn5/status/1044562464476737538 …
It's not profitable now, they lose tons of money every quarter--only infusions of new VC keep them from going under

Which begs the question, if they're not profitable what value are they providing? I mean I guess I'm glad that people are employed by Uber? I dunno, this "sharing economy" just seems like it worked better when high trust meant you could pick up hitchhikers.
