Workers should be able to choose for themselves. There's a non-trivial amount of rideshare drivers who already have full-time commitments (jobs, school, etc) and want extra income.
They are not looking for another job and just want to maximize flexible revenue.

- manigandham 7y agoThat's how life works, yes. In what scenario are you not responsible at all for understanding the legal situation you put yourself in?
- nick_kline 7y agoHow about the government provides health insurance and other social service benefits (like employment), then it wouldn't be part of the cost those businesses try to get away from paying? There are also thousands of people every year who do gig jobs and then get significantly hurt financially when they fall through a job benefit crack (health insurance etc) when they lose a job.
- manigandham 7y agoSure, healthcare separated from employment would be a fantastic development. Doesn't change my point that people should be able to make their own choices.
- malandrew 7y agoFurthermore, we should be voting for representatives that simplify laws so more people can understand the legal situations they are exposed to.
