If there are unlimited people willing to do the job and rent their vehicles then they won't get a raise, but why shouldn't they organize to get better pay.  No matter how much you try to devalue their skills and vehicles the fact is they generate hundreds of millions of dollars with those skills and vehicles.

Doesn't take a lot of skill to own a car and take it to walmart for oil changes. I'm not devaluing the person's skills, hell there may be many skilled uber driver. I simply pointing out the skill set to perform the task is not the most intricate. 

Apparently you've confused me with someone who thinks they don't have the right to demand a larger percentage. I'm simply pointing out they don't have much of a bargaining chip.
