EXCERPT:
PAVLICH: “They’ve also tinkered with the labor market in a sense, trying to make freelancing or gig work which people want because they want extra cash to make up for the lack of increases in wages because of the inflation, they’ve made that more difficult for consumers and for employees who want to just say, 'I want to drive Uber on the weekends.' They want to adopt this California model where anybody who works for you has to be a full-time employee. So they eliminate part of the job market at a time when people need extra money.”
