Yeah. I don't get it either. As a rider its awesome.

As a driver whose put in 20 hours driving, it's awesome. For driving, it's all about the surge. I'm not going to quit my day job for it, but I made $750 last week driving during an SEC football weekend. I put in about 10 or 11 hours. Granted, they were shifty hours, but I was up anyways. Uber pays for insurance, if it's not good enough for you, whatever, don't drive.

Reminder that Uber's CEO has said multiple times that he wants to replace the driver fleet with self driving cars: http://www.theverge.com/2014/5/28/5758734/uber-will-eventually-replace-all-its-drivers-with-self-driving-cars

There's no future in this for the drivers.

Anyone who wants to rely in uber for their livelihood is already in a dire career circumstance.
