And why shouldn't Uber be forced to be a platform where the drivers can negotiate price with riders? Seems rather bad that Uber is one dictating the pricing and their cut...

I don't want to put myself at the mercy of some asshole who is trying to dicker with me over the price of a ride. I do not want to argue about the price at all; I certainly do not want to argue about it with the person who is shortly going to drive me around. Better for them to direct whatever feelings of greed or disappointment they may have toward the operator of the service than toward me.

Why is it bad that a company sets their price?
