There's a lot of jobs as a driver where you are categorized as an employee. I work for Lyft so I'm familiar with most of the talking points and I'll reserve my opinion on which ones are bullshit or which ones are not. That being said, that _most_ drivers don't want to be employees is undeniable, and even on polls that unions conduct the outcome is something like half and half.
You can say that they can't decide for themselves because they are being oppressed, etc, etc... and while I agree with the sentiment I don't think "oppression" here is that bad as to force people to vote what gig economy companies want them to vote on an independent poll.
