I don't think those jobs losses were caused by the gig economy, though. Rather the gig economy arose out of the glut of labor available.
It's an important distinction to make. Although Uber et co may be predatory on underutilized workers, I don't think banning them is going to bring back the better jobs that used to exist.
The best way to make Uber pay better would be to have compelling other options for these workers; easier said than done though
