    Owning a taxi was once a ticket to financial security. Now it can lead to crushing debt as Uber upends the industry.http://nyti.ms/2eZ91Lu

        Yeah, but it took unionization to make Ford jobs good ones. W/o same move for Uber, future for large class of workers looks bleak

        'rideshare;, who's sharing what. Uber want to monopolise, then your fares will rise. This is the corporate model.

        Taxis have monopolized the market for a century. Uber has direct competitors and hasn't tried to shut them down through gov. intervention.

        No, you can be a taxi driver if you get one of the coveted medallions that are arbitrarily limited by the Gov.

        So the government have a monopoly? regulation is there for a reason - to protect businesses and public, without that we have anarchy

        Explain how taxi medallions protect anyone besides taxi drivers. No one forcing people to drive or ride Uber's, they do 'cause they want to.

        That's what 100 years of over charging and downright shitty service gets you. Horrible and rude dispatchers, non English speaking drivers.

        Empathy for the cabbies, but capitalism reigns. up to them to figure a way to provide a valued and competitive service and deliver it.

        No expectations! I know me and that person finds a way to sustain his livelihood regardless of the competitive factors - else give up?
