Comment on Why Uber Keeps Raising Billions

Comments

I have a great dislike of Uber. They say they are "breaking the taxi monopoly" but they're literally just building a new one, and they're doing that by starving out the existing taxi services with the billions and billions of dollars they keep fundraising. It's fucking dirty.

Why do you choose to label competition and development of a better product as 'fucking dirty'? Criticizing Uber for some imaginary future world where it has captured the market via regulatory mechanisms (like taxis), seems premature to me.
