It would be great if we could force the delivery apps to classify riders as employees.

It'd also be great if the US hadn't made a bunch of laws in the 20th century that makes it much more difficult for workers to unionize and strike than it is in most of the rest of the free world.

I would be happy with deliveristas getting $23/hour for an 8 hour shift... if they got health benefits and death benefits, because it's one of the most dangerous jobs in NYC.

Until we can make that happen, I will fully support them if they manage to organize well enough to successfully boycott bad tippers. They gotta get what they need. It's the law's fault they don't have easy ways to do that.
