These scammers are not going to leave , they make a lot of money charging customers $100 while paying the drivers$19 ,who do all the work and put gas in the car , have car repair and car depreciation , we have a lot of operation cost that this is not sustainable anymore ,while the apps keep 60% 80% of the fare , honestly drivers feel like we are just working to put gas in the tank and continue driving the next day , you would say why you don’t get another job ? Well there is a psychological component here , I put it this way , Uber and Lyft did what drug dealers do , go around and give drug for free and get people hooked and then they can do whatever they want , we are ll addicted to the apps , you as a rider are not willing to go back to the traditional way of moving in taxis and give up true apps , we drivers like quick cash every day doing ride share and it’s not like a drivers will get a job tomorrow and we have families to feed , so the apps are not going to leave the gold mine cause that’s what it is a gold mine, they are making millions of the back of drivers and over charging passengers

I’m not same Uber drivers aren’t getting screwed but I think more so they’re getting screwed by Biden’s economy inflation high insurance rates stuff like that that’s why people made more with Uber and Lyft years ago.

Is it accurate that a RIDE FARE of say $50.USD, then approximately $20.USD goes into Uber management pockets. Then about $30.USD goes into the pocket of the Uber Driver who owns the car, pays the gasoline, and all the costs to run the car and maintain it, including a commercial insurance premium to protect the passengers and normal liabilities. Does this sound fair to the Driver and the passengers paying the high costs charged by Uber?

I mean. I always thought this was meant to be more of a way to earn a little money on the side not a full time job. That being said, all drivers are considered independent contractors, and they should be setting up business insurance so I would think that the decision to drive for uber is a business decision more so than an employment decision, and you should understand the risks involved with getting involved with the business. TO be fair though, the depreciation of your vehicle and all the maintenance and repairs probably completely outweigh the money you will make out of doing this, and I don't think Uber provides for any sort of reimbursements for maintenance/repairs. So Uber essentially has little to no risk in the business and all they do is sit back and rake in the money. So I think some sort of help to its contractors may be beneficial whether that be a minimum wage or reimbursements for maintenance, gas, repairs, or idk some sort of help with that. But then again, you as the driver should not go into business with Uber in the first place and if you're going to go thorugh getting business insurance might as well start up your own business and taxi service.

Commercial Insurance cost is biggest barrier to legal cash rides. The Feds, or any state or city can declare Rideshare a public utility, and provide drivers a state commercial insurance at reasonable cost that you can buy by day, week, month, or year; just like when you rent a car. This creates a legion of cash drivers and real competition for Uber & Lyft. The miracle of competition will LOWER rider cost & RAISE driver pay AND expand the market & services. The Uber Lyft monopoly is the problem and the ability of independent contractors to set the price.

The business model that has become the "gig" companies is falling apart. Without standardized pricing and realistic compensation the future looks to be in question. To achieve standardized pricing, companies will need to adjust how they calculate driver fares and pay. One important change will require drivers to adjust as well. Current mileage/fares are calculated from a drivers location. To achieve standardized pricing, companies will need to calculate rates from pickup to destination. Drivers could opt in for an acceptable mileage radius from their location (2,5,10,20..etc).

This video reveals that Uber and Lyft are threatening to leave Minneapolis by May 1st due to a new wage ordinance passed by the city council. The ordinance requires rideshare companies to pay drivers a minimum of $15 per hour, which drivers say is long overdue. However, Uber and Lyft claim they may have to pull out of not just Minneapolis, but the entire metro area or even the state. The video exposes that these threats are likely empty, as the companies have made similar threats in other cities but ultimately stayed. The real reason for their opposition seems to be their reliance on cheap labor to maintain profitability. The video also reveals that the city council rushed the vote ahead of a Department of Labor rideshare wage study set to be released the next day, likely to avoid any contradictory findings. Overall, the video exposes the exploitative business model of rideshare companies and their attempts to strongarm cities into allowing them to continue underpaying drivers.

All the people commenting that these companies are greedy and should pay drivers more, are you willing to create an app and pay drivers that much for every ride? Go ahead, and prove Uber and Lyft wrong. That's the real world. Your buying the socialist nonsense just cost all these people their jobs.

@@someperson9999 there are other independent drivers. Why don’t you pay the independent drivers what you pay these apps. These apps want to pay less than minimum wage to drivers, drivers have to use their own car, gas, insurance. And get paid too little all the maintenance cars need isn’t getting covered by the apps, the drivers have to cover all their expenses, they are almost giving rides for free.

@@desserteyes6978 then the drivers don't have to work for these apps. Somebody else can do the job if they don't want to. Uber isn't supposed to be a taxi service. That's the whole point of these apps. And now the government wants to put it's greasy hands into another private industry that will blow up the cost for the consumer or if you're disabled like me, make it more difficult for you to get to your doctor's appointments because now you have to wait an hour for a taxi to show up to the wrong place.

@@someperson9999 wrong no one is going to run their vehicle into the ground for free. And yes it’s a job it’s not a charity to be giving you rides when they gain nothing. Private business have to follow the law of this country. You are right they don’t have to work for these apps. Someone is going to come work then realize how they make nothing they quit. Can’t expect to disrespect drivers have them working for free for your convenience. Why don’t you ask the government to provide you a free ride?

How the F can you justify the fact that Uber and Lyft take rate is 50 percent and sometimes it can be as high as 65 percent? How can you justify that? Part time or full time, they can not take that much money, let them leave, the city of Minneapolis doesn’t need these two evil companies, their departure can only open up space for more ethical companies to fill in

It’s called fair and wage acts that give each states and localities to impose minimum wage. This is not minimum wage but rates increases which they allowed to do because apps are TNC. If they want to bitch they can become taxi companies and employ driver but regulations on those are much harsher
