Uber losing $1B a year to compete in China
I don't understand. Why not just focus on the rest of the world? It is, after all a big effin world. China has always been a different market. What's with this need to monopolize every corner of the world and lose a shiz ton of $ in the process?

Its not about the world - but who has the money.
Ghanan kids prolly wont have the money to even afford Uber.

China is one of the biggest untapped markets in the world for just about any non-China company. No wonder they want a crack.

China isn't a homogenous uniform market, those large market advantages arent present like in the US
