Anything that is called gig economy is for one purpose alone to make the company money at any cost. Employees are ends to a means, there's no culture, identity, camaraderie, commonality. It's sterile and disgusting

The popularity of the gig economy among workers would suggest that that is not a universally held view.

I don't personally care for those jobs myself, but I wouldn't have the hubris to suggest the opportunity should be taken away from those who do.

Of course. This is my opinion that I'm typing with two thumbs on a 6-in screen. And don't really go into a 20 paragraph reason why. But yes of course it works for some people, it didn't work for me, it'll work for others and then It won't work for others. But the Gigs are not care to uplift you financially or personally or professionally. They will tell you that. They will literally tell you you're just a piece of meat.lol

I think you meant the "poverty" instead of popularity...

All the things you mentioned, people who choose to work the gig economy don't really care about. You are just trying to impose your beliefs and feelings on them.
