      *** Uber/Lyft have moved all the risk/expenses to the drivers, who are the ones that suffer, while the corporation retains most of the profits... it's fundamental to their business model, basically forcing the drivers into the "company town" kind of model where they can barely get ahead.

        @ai6yr my Uber driver on the way to the mechanic the other day said that Uber hadn’t adjusted fees to account for gas prices at all, but that they are hard-pushing their drivers into getting the Uber gas credit card, which according to him only works at the most expensive gas stations, pushing drivers into debt to the very company they’re contracting for
