A few weeks ago, I wrote about how Uber was upsetting government regulators. The ride-sharing company is providing such great service to consumers that existing taxi companies called upon the government to help.

There was no allegation of misbehavior or dangerous practices. The bureaucratic order simply said the rules don’t allow Uber to operate.
