Who is forcing a person to become an Uber/Lyft driver?

Abuse?? Nobody is forced to work anywhere in the U.S. If they can find a better situation they should. Why hurt their situation with regulation?

  > Nobody is forced to work anywhere in the U.S. Starvation and rent suggest otherwise. We're not so sufficiently advanced that anyone can choose not to work and expect meals and a roof over their head.

    You can’t drive for Uber without a car. People starving to death in the US don’t have cars.

    How does the existence of Uber impede on your ability to get another job? Do you really think if the company shut the lights off today all of its drivers would be better off?
