Just accepted a ride to Morrisville, PA. I assumed it was the one near Exit 35, but that’s not even the point. What is the point is the blatant exploitation. They charged the rider $81 and handed me $31. Let that sink in. Nearly half the money simply disappears into their pocket. That’s not a “platform fee” — that’s legalized theft.

Call it what it is: a system designed to squeeze the drivers dry while keeping investors smiling and executives celebrating their quarterly bonuses. The people actually doing the work are treated like disposable tools.

I spoke with the rider. He was incredibly kind and, frankly, shocked when he heard what I was paid. He even felt bad enough to tip me $20 out of his own pocket. Imagine that — the customer showing more integrity than the company running the platform.

This kind of predatory practice deserves serious scrutiny. It’s exactly the type of behavior regulators like the FTC should be investigating. Companies shouldn’t be allowed to hide behind apps and algorithms while quietly draining both drivers and riders.

At some point, there has to be accountability. Because systems built on greed and deception don’t last forever. Eventually the truth surfaces, and when it does, the consequences tend to be severe.

Are you serious ?? Ride to morrisville PA(from Philadelphia) $81 for rider and $31 for driver !! This is stealing !!
