I don't really see the 'gig economy' as an alternative to regular jobs, which is always implicitly or explicitly implied by these articles. If you need a job, go find a job. If you are flexible, have some extra time, could use some extra money, enjoy these gig tasks or whatever, find a gig task.
Obviously there aren't enough jobs to go around, this is not caused by the gig economy. Some regular jobs don't pay well enough, this is also not caused by the gig economy.
