Medallions sound like a truly bizarre and unfair system.
And if Uber operated exclusively in New York, we could accept they had a profitable-sounding business model: bypassing that system.
But given that Uber has expanded into many other cities and countries, 99% of which don't have medallions, it's pretty clear that merely bypassing the medallion system isn't their business model.
