Transcript

NYC livery ("black car") driver Dough Schifter killed himself with a shotgun in front of city hall. He blamed Uber and Uber-coddling politicians for driving down his wages. NY Times readers criticized Schifter for failing to adapt. Mark Iowa: Sink or swim. He sank. Schifter was over 60. Elizabeth B., medical school: Develop an app. Others complained that they had received poor service from traditional taxis that cost too much. How many times did the cabby take the wrong way? Taxis were very expensive (Schifter didn't drive a yellow taxi) It didn't occur to anyone that people like Schifter might be retrained or given financial assistance. Oh, well. Capitalism!!!
