As you no doubt remember, the far-left in California was attempting to reinstitute racial discrimination with Proposition 16. Billionaire oligarchs had contributed about 20 million to Proposition 16, whereas opponents raised barely 2 million (95% from Asians) from small contributors.
With 73% of votes reported, the election has been called for the opponents. They are leading with 56% of the vote, outrunning Trump's vote by 23 votes. This is harbinger of what you can expect what will happen if the electorate gets polarized on the lines of identity politics - even California could come in play.
Proposition 16 passed 60-14 in the California Assembly and 30-10 in the Senate. What kind of a political class is this, where you can get a supermajority for something that is overwhelmingly rejected by a majority non-white, very left-wing electorate? Who are they representing? The billionaire oligarchs who were trying to buy this election?
I honestly doubt that the billionaire oligarchs who were funding the opposition to Proposition 20 care about people's privacy. It was Mark Zuckerberg and the wife of the Netflix CEO.
Uber apparently threatened to stop operations if they were required to treat their employees like, well, employees. The amount of money that people make from working for these companies is a pittance.
People are on a huge pro-crime kick in CA. They aren't going to back off when literally every company in the Bay and LA is pro-BLM.
If they work for a pittance and are unhappy, they can leave. My friend is doing these apps, and he was doing fast food before. If Uber picks up and leaves, then he goes back to fast food.
Then they can quit and work somewhere else if they're not satisfied with the pay.
It's not up to you to decide how much people must be paid or what 'benefits' they must receive.
Hey dipshit, everyone is telling you that most actual drivers supported the prop, yet you keep insisting that they're actually oppressed. Who does that remind you of?
