3 takeaways:
* Collective action is hard, seems like good work for a startup / law firm to simplify the experience of suing for backpay, winning arbitration, navigating NLRB paperwork, etc. In exchange for 10% of the proceeds.
In the article they called one such arbitration ruling "drips and drabs" compared to their revenue. But what if the spigot opens up?
* As usual follow the money, the "links in the chain" model described is ridiculous when you see all the work performance requirements and controls are governed by the company at the top. They should be named and shamed, but also some enterprising folks should be working to pierce that veil.
* Similarly, we need to support UBI and more social programs to raise the floor for these low margin fungible worker churn buckets.
