AB5 is a colossal failure and it was done for taxes, not worker protection.
Full-time driving jobs already exist. Shuttles, buses, taxis, limos, etc. Uber Black is mostly private transport employees. It was a choice for drivers to willingly work for Uber instead. The lawsuit was backed by a handful of people who went against the 99.9% of drivers who wanted freedom and flexibility to work above all.
It's a tyranny of using a tiny minority to unlock massive tax potential. If protecting workers was really the goal then they should've created a 3rd option instead of shoving everyone into the W2 extreme, and it's affecting all kinds of freelance workers.
