> I understand not wanting Uber in your country

Norway wants Uber and its drivers to follow Norwegian laws, namely fulfil the requirement of a license for paid passenger transportation.

> to hit bottom-tier employees is just wrong.

Uber sells them as independent contractors, and regardless norwegian law requires that the operator of the vehicle has a license, which is the drivers.
