Thank you @FlyingWithSara!

"And remember, technology will never replace a beating heart. Never fear a robot. Fear of robots is how the rich intend to keep us down. But Uber drivers reminded us recently that we have power together."

Wow @dkhos you really are determined to destroy #Uber and the drivers.

As Uber goes public, these stories highlight the plight of drivers who are making less and less from rides.

These drivers deserve to take part in Uber’s prosperity. https://t.co/Z1LLppT43r
