> In this case Uber offered you $x. You agreed to $x.

The value of x was established under different circumstances. What's wrong with bumping that to 1.5x as soon as you have the power to do so?

When the cab industry was "the system", Uber and Lyft beat the system and made money. Now the drivers are beating the Uber/Lyft system and making money.

Viva disruption.

EDIT: Actually Uber/Lyft beat the cab system and lost money, but that's another kettle of fish.
