I love Uber, despite never using it, for the competition it creates. I like that the taxi monopoly gets upset.

It's unfortunate then because Uber operates with worse business ethics than the industry they're trying to replace:

We're sticking with public transport, thank you very much! Ha..! It is an absolute pleasure to go by public transport once you've experienced Australian's transport system. Routes, times and fees are a disgrace.
