If they had a lot of business and only had 3 or more people on each trip. Even then, they wouldn't get rich from it. I think a lot if not most of the drivers are also running a route when they don't have airport pickups or dropoffs or a tour scheduled.
The reason I have always been against "bidding wars" on airport transfers here on the site is that race to the bottom that doesn't account for the "personal touches" that each one of us like about our favorite drivers. If I want cheap, I take a JUTA bus. If I want to go to a Cambio, grocery store, Digicel Store and have a great ride with a friend, I use Linston.
The trip can be long enough even with a friend but riding with a stranger who you can't relax with while they drive, makes the trip seem like it will never end.
Just my opinion.

I agree. The race to the bottom does not serve anyone well.
We had the same taxi driver for decades until he retired about 5 years ago. He used to hang with us at music venues and we loved having meals with the guy.
We have been calling on Luxurious Carib Tours for Mobay transfers for a few years. Its like spending a few hours with old friends at the beginning and end of the trip. Stop for grub, hit the store, all good. Andre and his guys are top notch. He has done much for me and my family.
