Granted...Uber and Lyft suck....but they meet my needs. I’m retired, play traveling softball 25 weeks out of the year. I drive maybe 24hrs a week Monday to Wednesday to cover the weekends travel expenses.
No need to stand up for myself in regards to Uber Lyft and quite happy with my life as it is.
I’m just curious as to when Uber and Lyft showed up toy our door and put a gun to your head forcing you to sign up and drive.
Still wishing you luck.

They showed up after leasing a car to put a gun to my head to take the profit out of driving. if they don't like drivers to profit. they're free to close and free the market up to a company that will. it's called capitalism and it works for the people. not corporations otherwise you get, socialism when capitalism only works for corporations. America was founded on what's better for people. Since people founded and fought for it. I've yet to see a corporation get a medal 🎖 or gold star for fighting to keep Americans free. So if we are going to continue to protect the USA from communism and socialism. Then we need capitalism to continue to work for the average person not the Uber rich.

Good luck with your quest. Thousands have tried to strike Uber to no avail. If one doesn't drive thousands of others will. Uber has discovered supply and demand. Riders are willing to pay more and drivers will drive for less.

America wasn't founded by guys who said let's just pay the taxes since England is the greatest empire on earth we're just a few colonists.
every Goliath has a Achilles heel you just need to keep fighting to look for.
if people don't stand up to Corporations eventually socialism will sneak in the door. look at Bernie and AOC knocking, it's on its way. Dealing with people is in the corporate as well as our best interests.

If you created a business and after a few years it built popularity to the point where you could charge more for the service and pay less to the service providers, I would say you are a genius. Do you know any businesses like that?

A genius no a greedy corporate goon maybe. The idolizing of corporate greed will eventually end in the country turning socialist. The time has come to reign in corporate greed. For people to band together to get a fair share of what the earn. Companies earn nothing without them. People survive without corporations but corporations die without people. People need to have a little self worth. All I hear is people who value the greed of companies over themselves. How did you get like this have a little pride in yourself believe your worth a little ask for more than the scraps you seem happy with. Fine the spine to get off all fours and walk upright like a human.

Guess we can add "DARKHWY" to the likes of John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and George Washington
Not quite those guys but maybe Cesar Chavez, Jimmy Hoffa,

The economy is strong if Coronavirus doesn't kill it the time is right to stand up and get what you've earned. Uber & Lyft are nothing with how safe courteous drivers. If your one of them then why shouldn't you get what you deserve.
