It's no more paternalistic than any minimum wage law. Society has decided that jobs can't pay below a certain threshold, the law just makes that apply to gig workers now too.
- Thorrez 6y agoYou're partially right. But AB5 does more than just apply a minimum wage, it also requires the drivers to be employees rather than contractors.
