We’re going full circle, just take a regular cab
Oops they don't exist anymore
There was this article basically arguing that for the past 10 years upper middle class / millenials were living a subsidizied life of convenience (subsidized by tech companies' losses. Cf. Uber, airbnb, etc.). With those companies needing to turn a profit eventually, the prices are bound to go up.
Same with DoorDash, GrubHub, etc.

Yep. That’s why public transit is a saving grace in big cities. (I live in Chicago and my usage of public transit and alternatives like divvy has increased a lot since the cab rates have gone up)
I live in Chicago, too. I would not risk it to take public transit these days.

And most of that doesn’t even go to the drivers
They were cheaper for a while now they’re capitalizing on people getting too used to them and regular cabs are much cheaper
And they’re not even profitable as a business
So don't take them. They are a luxury.
