    Oh do you prefer the ‘legal’ cab company willfully taking you to a back alley to beat you down and feel untouchable because they are in some sort of union they feel protected by?

        Unions help their members legally. Apparently if a lot of members are assholes, the union still does its job.

          I have trouble to see your point. Do you mean that makes unions a bad thing?

            Of course not. They’re like a tool. If they are used as a barrier against a potentially abusive employer, they’re great. If they’re used to shield cops from accountability or pay the legal fees of rapists, they’re an obstacle to justice.

        I see you’re lacking enough knowledge of the cab vs uber events to be throwing your hat into the ring.
