Most of the settlement money will become restitution payments to current and former drivers, Campbell's office said. The companies also agreed to provide drivers at least $32.50 per hour for the time they spend traveling to pick up passengers and transporting them to their destination.

      No. They’re apparently not profitable because they invest in smaller companies, hoping they’ll go huge, and those companies haven’t panned out.

      If they would stop doing that, they’d be profitable.
