Regulated taxis are already a state enforced monopoly.

Except, in many regions where Uber is expanding to the government does not enforce a monopoly.

It’d cost me about 50€ to get a commercial drivers license, and I could start my own taxi company that very same day. Commercial drivers license, Commercial insurance, no further regulation.

But Uber is trying to expand into this region.

My service is going to get worse.
