It probably did occur to GP, that's the whole point (if I'm right to be charitable).
Top comment is arguing that these people should be laid off as part of a government initiative to reshape the economy. If these people can't quit, what will happen if they are laid off? Is there any policy that could help these workers? My best guess is UBI, but that is another discussion.
- bpodgursky 6y agoI would be more charitable to calls to destroy the gig industry if the proposals were coupled with any realistic path to retraining or alternatively-employing the employees. When the comment is just "this job should not exist" I just know there's no intellectual consistency behind it. They want to punish employers they don't like, and don't especially care who is hurt in the process.
