This one sentence contradicts everything else in the article. If driving for Lyft is such a bad deal, why are too many people doing it?

- menssen 12y agoI don't know if this is the true for Lyft, but the recent articles about UberX strikes suggest a bait-and-switch tactic (or at least a perceived bait-and-switch tactic). The amount of money you make used to be high enough that people made investments in new car; now the amount of money is significantly less, but people are stuck doing it to pay the auto loan.
