First, the letter is way too long. As a non-interested newbie (me) reads it, the letter is way too personal. A better letter would have been along these lines:

"I can no longer afford to drive for Uber due to the recent rate-cuts. Please deactivate my account."

The only way any Uber driver will be heard is if they interest the press. The press doesn't care for Uber. If drivers like Jax organized to harm Uber, what would happen if they were successful? I don't think anything would happen.

If you are going to harm Uber, you will have to organize around calm leadership that has a good website, press kit, and interest the press, then take the press kit to politicians, etc. But that won't work, and who wants to work that hard?

If you wait a while, it won't be long before some rider is killed in an Uber car. The press will run with that story. Then the politicians will be pressured by riders to regulate Uber. Uber must know this, so perhaps Uber is trying to make as much money on rides right now, before the owner sells the company at a higher price, because more rides means a higher valuation of the company.

With all these fare cuts it's just a matter of time someone gets hurt. Drivers are going to have to decide between eating or changing brakes on their car. That is one reason taxis are regularly inspected.

I used to get the uberjax and actionjax mixed up.

Since UberJax has been gone for almost a year and a half, and you've only been a member for about three months.....

How could you get them mixed up?
