In your opinion, is Uber meant to be driven full time? or is it designed to be part-time?

This question is designed with an answer in mind. It's obviously a challenge against those who drive them full time.
Calling it a part-time gig is a good excuse for Uber because those people would expect less and won't complain about the low pay. It's basically a way to make a little cash on the side, using the car that's sitting there anyways and using the time they happen to have free.
That's even how they advertise it on TV.
"Can I support my family" thread is pretty dark.
Definitely part time because you will lose money doing it full time. Cheap fares cheap passengers, high commissions, will not cover your cost of operations along with money in your pocket. There are more jobs today then ever ,I suggest securing yourself n one of them and use iber as a gap filler.
