Uber's new big idea
http://observer.com/2015/09/uber-pitche ... ongestion/
Was an old idea that was known as cab share
It didn't work then and won't work now
But why
I'm thinking they are shi-ing themselves as using the term rideshare isn't washing with the regulators, like all cabs on the road Uber cars aren't going anywhere until they are booked, rideshare is a car term if two or more passengers including the driver are heading in a similar direction, they share the cost, uber drivers don't share any cost, they receive a payment in the same way as a cabbie does, uber receives the booking through its app, driver accepts booking, nothing unique here, I say they can't be allowed to use the term rideshare, its miss leading
Cab Pooling as it should be called shows up Uber for what they are, extreme capitalist's without a concern of regulators and established transportation strategies, their technology isn't unique either it's different but other similar apps do the same thing, why support them when we can support local apps attached to an established circuit, I include Gett as well, they too are owned by venture capitalist's, let's stand firm here and show these buffoons the door to our trade is closed.
