> Uber still uses the same governmental resources

No, it doesn't, at least not in the US. It uses fewer government resources, although I don't have the data to say how significant of a difference it is.

How does it use fewer resources? It drives on the same roads, uses the same infrastructure, and costs the taxpayer the same.

If you consider the taxpayer paying the bill because uber doesn’t insure properly, it costs even more.
