> suffering of others I always ask Uber drivers why they are driving. The reasons are alway to the tune of: * Part-time (sick family member, needs extra cash, etc) * He can drive 14h/day and make bank (up to 5 times the minimum wage) * He is unemployed * Previously worked a blue collar, minimum wage jog with a shitty boss. Makes almost double minimum wage with no shitty boss The "suffering of others" isn't caused by the gig economy. Simply removing the gig economy does nothing to help those in need. It serves only to pat yourself on the back and think you are ridding the world from capitalist oppression. Focus on removing the suffering of others first, and the gig economy will collapse on its own.
