Because competition is bad for business (good for customers for sure), but I repeat, BAD for business.

Why would you want 10 companies competing, bet your investment in one, or "spread it" like a loser, when you can pool ALL your money and make sure ALL the profit accumulates into one giant enormous company ?

Uber in this case happens to be the company chosen for big money.
