Dara made them look stupid, hahaha. Kellyanne Conway alternative facts. Rideshare may be good right now but when everybody's back the "decoupling" is going to be a bigger issue than it is right now. Some people live in the moment some people look ahead, most businesses plan ahead and some people look at this (rideshare) as their business. Businesses look at future long-term earnings, then try to take actions to keep the income levels sustainable. Rideshare earnings on the driver's end doesn't look good after September. Gas is not expected to go down, however the prop22 guaranteed earnings for engaged time is written in stone. Dara and his wonderfully inane word frazing. A "third kind of worker" and "decoupling" he could use more recognizable terms like voluntary indentured servitude and sub minimum wage.

I've relied on U/L's time estimates before but found them to be unreliable.

I'll say Amen to that brother!

Travis Kalanick has been described as being a passionate libertarian, and a fan of author Ayn Rand. However, even with his libertarian beliefs, Kalanick stated that he supports Obamacare because his independent contractor drivers maintain health insurance as they work without employee benefits and can easily be injured on the job.
