If that was only in the US or other wealthy economies, maybe. But they're an international company. Some of those rides are in places where a $2 increase doubles the price of the ride. I think it would be more revealing to compare with their total receipts and see the % change that would be required.

The proposition is California-specific. Will not change anything outside of CA.

This comment thread is discussing Uber's profitability and how much they'd need to raise prices to break even independent of Prop 22.
