Another thing to think about... no matter how "good" a piece of legislation might be, if you're a bottom earner it may help you make more. But if you're a top earner it may hurt you because if U/L is forced to pay bottom earners more, they will naturally figure out a way to pay top earners less.

Which is only 'fair' isn't it?
I mean, we have to hold back smart kids so they don't make the lazy kids feel bad, right?
We give out trophies to everyone who played because we can't have 'winners and losers', it will make them feel bad.

Don't you think that a capable, hard working person should get the same thing as the lazy one?
What if the 'lazy one' is a minority, maybe we OWE him reparations for the way his great grandfather was treated. Shouldn't he make the same, or more, as the privileged pale one?

Equality for all.

When the quality of service is that drastic of a difference they should not be paid the same as you. I don't think it should be like that whether it is declared a contractor or W-2 position. Even in a W-2 environment they could easily clear out the herd and reward the 5 star drivers.

I dunno about where YOU live, but where I live - that would not be possible.
If the person that the boss wanted to be rid of was his worse employee ... and also a one-legged mixed-race trans (wo)man .... not a chance.
She OWNS that job and will probably be able to put it in her will to next of kin; according to the upcoming 'reparations' law that our governor will soon pass.

Now, an old white guy? Oh yea. Someone overheard him talking about 'the girls'. That is a violation of several HR rules and he's fired next day (even if he didn't do it).
