The California AG, probably at the instruction of Newsome, Obtained a court order that requires Uber and Lyft to either shut down completely or immediately turn all of us rideshare drivers into employees. Those of us who know economics know how unfeasible it is to turn us all into employees. Wld have to schedule our shifts, get paid hourly, and the rideshare platforms would have to fire up to 80% of the workforce that work part time.

to their credit, uber and lyft haven’t caved to the state of California. theyre going to let the shut down happen unless their appeal on the basis of economic hardship is granted.

if Uber and lift shut down suddenly about 20% of the workforce in Sacramento alone probably won’t be able to get to work. benefits are running out. South sac alone could become a turf war like New York.

The way I see it, becerra and Newsom know That proposition 22, which will allow Uber and Lyft to forever remain gigs in California, it’s probably going to pass this fall. So they’re trying to force uber and lyfts hand before the election, and they’re risking millions of Californians lives in the process.

as a human being who has concern for his fellow humans, I don’t want Uber and lyft to shut down. but if they do California will certainly devolve into a level of chaos that will certainly cull the herd.

I can’t see anyone but republicans being willing to vote in such an atmosphere

socialists in power in ca want their cut of the uber/lyft cash cow so badly theyre literally willing to risk millions of lives

pray for CA. travis allen said that maybe ca needs to fail. its about to on a massive level barring divine intervention.
