> Hell, even looking now in a pandemic it looks like it’s still $300 round trip an 9 hours. That’s legitimated $250 or so dollar more than the gas it costs for me to take my wife and daughter up in half the time.

Well, gas isn't the only cost. The IRS remimbursement rate is $0.54/mile, which is supposed to cover all costs, so to go from Cincinnati to Chicago of that's about $300 round-trip, and you don't have to worry about parking when you get there. The number of people you're planning to take in the car tips the scales one way or the other obviously.

Depreciation on the vehicle

Cost to insure the vehicle

Cost to register the vehicle

Routine maintenance on the vehicle.

Those are all real costs. This article explains a bit more.

> You have a mathematical equation that will tell me whether I will get into an accident because of über? Short of running a more advanced model typically used by actuaries, that isn't something one can easily calculate. Obviously fuel is, but I highly doubt that you (or really the average person) can easily calculate the wear and tear cost per x amount of miles driven. I'm saying it's something not many people consider (I know über drivers).

Ughh, it's pretty trivial to look these things up, given that there are numerous companies and government entities that calculate these things.

> I also said they often don't have a choice, with is irrelevant to whether they know or not.

Then maybe you should go with that argument instead of the argument that they're too dumb to understand.

> You're the one defending a shitty company that's drivers don't get paid much, is known to treat their internal employees (not drivers) like shit, and used pyschological manipulation on its employees. Yet, I'm the one with distaste for the poor? Have you ever had to do jobs you don't want to, because you need to make ends meet? Because I have, and that's why I'm not defending über here. Fuck them and stop pretending your "for the worker" when you're really siding with a slimy company.

I'm not defending Uber, I'm defending the drivers from people like you who think they're too stupid to understand how much money they're making.

You could've stopped at "that's the only job they can get". Instead you keep talking about how these people don't understand that cars wear out and that they need to pay for gas or some shit. Sorry, I don't hate poor people enough that I think they're all neanderthals who don't even understand how cars work.
