nyc mayor de blasio has started a war with uber trying to pass legislation to cap the number of uber drivers that can operate and uber is fighting hard they recently updated their app escalating the fight and rolled out cool ads like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePAxy5PCeuk even the NYT and the other new york papers are backing uber buzzfeed had an epic story today revealing some funny inside baseball in the de blasio camp http://www.buzzfeed.com/bensmith/cold-dead-uber lol hold on to ur butts, this is just getting started. the republicans like jeb bush are on side with uber cause they want silicon valley's backing (and hillary has already indicated that the "gig economy" is gonna be the new bogeyman like private equity was last time)

de blasio is doing the wrong thing. uber should be banned and prosecuted, not limited

it's a shame that Uber/Lyft are a 1000000000% better experience than taxis because I will never loving call a taxi but if I'm in a city with bad public transportation I'll use Lyft

I mainly only use them when I'm in LA/the bay area and based on those cities' taxis I was being generous stopping at 100000000%

we had uber for like 2 weeks and then they banned it and uber didn't leave then they threatened to take the drivers to jail and then it ended. son of council of conservative citizens member haley barbour, austin barbour, is one of their big lobbyists. lol.

i'm constantly surprised that clinton is actually coming out hard against uber. it seems like a riskier move than i'd expect. for now i'll just laff at people on facebook going WHAT HILLARY WHY every time a story pops up.

"can you fight a company with $18.2 billion in the bank?!?!?!?!" uber sold like 1/100th of 1% for some ridiculous valuation that makes them 'worth' $18.2 billion. they don't have that much in the bank, idiots. not u guys, the author.

Is uber dead the second they're forced to allow drivers to set their rates to keep their independent contractor status?
