I don&#x27;t quite get why it matters if it&#x27;s for profit or not. If its about the uber-driver split then we&#x27;re talking about lowering the 20% fee, not a huge deal in the scheme of things. Presumably the fee will not be that far from that 20% cut.<p>The more substantial part of the grievances that taxi and limo drivers usually have with uber is about prices and the number of participants in the market. That is a negative sum game.  Drivers&#x27; gains come at the expense of consumers and (often) other drivers.
