California Gov. Gavin Newsom and lawmakers strike a deal with Uber and Lyft allowing drivers to unionize while remaining classified as independent contractors
Why strike a deal? Funny how I'm never consulted on the laws I'm expected to obey.
it's called voting and referendums. do you need representative democracy vs direct democracy explained to you again?
That's not what this is about. Elected representatives met with Uber and negotiated a deal. With a referendum, I can choose where my vote goes, but my influence on the outcome is minuscule. (As it should be as one of many members of society).
