I agree that Prop 22 is not a perfect solution. But I think Prop 22 is a better solution than AB5. If independent contractor work is insufficiently protected, then independent contractors should be given better protections.
Gig workers need the flexibility to open up the Lyft, Uber, Doordash, and Instacart apps all at the same time. They need the flexibility to refuse a fare for any reason. They need the flexibility to work whatever hours they want. I don't see how to build that flexibility into the rigid structure enforced by the employer-employee relationship.
Trying to 9-to-5-ify gig workers doesn't make any sense to me.
