The Democrats who completely control California have declared that they, not workers, decide how people want to work.
The law says that Uber and Lyft have to treat their drivers as employee's not as independent contractors. That means healthcare, vacation time, etc.
Sounds good but it's an impossible burden. But the Democrats, few if any who have actually held a real job or run a business, say so what. Democrats don't care that a huge number of Californians who work intermittently or only few hours a week to get extra money will no be without side jobs.
Democrats don't care about how many people are hurt by Democrat's social engineering projects.
What's worse is that the Democrat run House has passed a similar law, HR 2474. Which means if the Democrats get the Senate in November you'll no longer be able to use Uber or Lyft and Americans will no longer have a way to flexibly supplement their incomes.

I admire your dedication to sneaking in errors to every post. It's a fun puzzle but I think I figured this one out.
> The law says that Uber and Lyft have to treat their drivers as employee's not as independent contractors. That means healthcare, vacation time, etc.
California doesn't require employees to be given vacation time. Part-time employees (which the majority of gig workers qualify as) aren't eligible for mandatory insurance benefits (and technically neither are full-time employees).
Try harder next time.
But of course Uber and Lyft do have vacation plans for their employees and it's unclear if California would allow a two tier system.
The key point, which of course renders your comment irrelevant, is that by making it impossible for people to freely choose to be contract workers Democrats are forcing tens of thousands of people out of work.
It's not just Uber. Contract writers and editors have to either leave the state or give up their jobs.
By concentrating on the minutia you ignore the real issue.
Which of course is your intent.
Ah yes, minutia like "how employment law works in CA" in a post about California employment law. Yes, you can have a two tier system in CA. Apparently you were too lazy to even look that up before posting so you just guessed wrong.
My intent is to laugh at how hideously wrong you constantly are. And you clearly don't care about being right. I mean you don't even bother editing your posts to reflect my simple corrections.
Your "corrections" have nothing to do with the point of the article. In this or in any other case.
And the fact that the law doesn't require vacation time doesn't mean that companies won't get sued for a two tier system.
> Your "corrections" have nothing to do with the point of the article. In this or in any other case.
The point of the post was that being counted as employees instead of contractors would be an undue burden and your evidence was that they would need to be given healthcare and vacation. But I told you they don't need to be given those things. This seems to strike at the heart of the article's point.
But even if this were just a nit-pick why wouldn't you correct it?

Wow you are doubling down on this error. Look companies already operate in CA using a two-tier system. It's totally fine. Maybe do any research before making random legal speculation like this. I mean you can be sued for anything but this is very unlikely.
