Uber is great. Fast, courteous, cheap, clean. All the things taxis aren't. Taxi authorities in many big cities are controlled by a combination of the government and the mob. They have been milking a quasi-monopoly for decades and now they have some real competition.

Surge pricing is simply a lesson in economics. If you've ever waited 30+ minutes for a taxi, you understand supply vs. demand.
