Yes, once Uber takes the crown they will behave ethically, operate within the confines of the law and re-classify their drivers as employees with full benefits. They also won't even consider dropping them as soon as self-driving car technology matures. /s
- marssaxman 11y agoIt depends on the state, but in many places taxi drivers are not employees either; they are independent sole proprietorships who rent the taxi medallion from its owner. Uber is not perfect but is an improvement over the status quo for both drivers and riders. Once it "takes the crown", we can work on the next step in improving transit.
- JoshTriplett 11y ago> re-classify their drivers as employees with full benefits In what way is this an ethical concern? Many other businesses work with contractors. Considering that drivers compete with each other, work hours of their choice, and supply their own equipment, what exactly makes them employees?
