I think compelling someone to be an employee of a company is stupid and governments are basically doing this. Not everyone wants to be an employee which forces you to be managed by the company and have less flexibility with your lifestyle. But I suppose those drivers that want to remain independent contractors could just register an LLC and then contract with Uber. Probably the most sensible so they could use multiple platforms too. Then California gets $800 per year per driver for the privilege of running an LLC. Not a bad strategy for the state. Squeeze the company, the employees and the contractors all at the same time.
