In the classical economic sense, Lyft/Uber should be competing to drive prices down to razor thin margins for the facilitator service. Is that happening? Or are they pocketing fat margins?
And it wasn't much of a cartel in NYC before, anyways. Most subways stops in Brooklyn had a black car nearby if you knew how to look for them.
Last time I checked, neither Uber nor Lyft were profitable (at all!) before the 2023-2024 time period.
True but if they need 25-50 percent to be unprofitable.. why are we so mad at the previous cartel again? I thought this was progress?
