You pro Uber guys: do you think that Uber should be regulated like other taxi cabs or not?

I am not understanding why they bought the cans if they weren't ready to implement the trucks.
Firing all the garbagemen first, then testing the trucks, would have been a recipe for disaster.

I also don't understand what they need to test about them, because they work everywhere else
NOLA's unique culture extends even to garbage pickup.

In a simple answer no but i do not think taxis should face those regulations.

No, they regulate themselves

So, you would get rid of the requirements for all cab drivers/companies that operate in the city? Or are you just in favor of allowing Uber to skirt the laws?

FYI, if you know anything about IQ tests, you know that this isn't really much of an insult...

that wasn't a biased question at all

Fair enough. I'm all for competition but I do think all companies should be allowed to compete on a level playing field.

What is it
I love Uber and use it every time that I can. I would certainly call it a cab company.

There are some really inarticulate people on both sides of this debate 
This is the first one I've watched. Has it been like this for every meeting?

Dude, this isn't really a debate about uber vs. cabs. It's about anti-regulation vs. regulation. In this case, regulation is hurting the consumer and protecting the business of cabs.
