Not sure why this is being downvoted. It's an interesting idea to consider.
It would probably require Uber going through a bankruptcy and reforming as a company with a dramatically different structure. Uber going through a bankruptcy process is not a far fetched idea considering their financials.
Are you implying Uber could convert to a worker cooperative? That would be a little difficult to pull off given the amount of VC money they've raised on top of already going public.
Uber's entire system is based on pushing the risk (varying levels of business, injury, etc) on to their drivers / customers... and they lose money on that.
I'm not sure being more friendly to drivers would get them anywhere.
Likely enough for Uber to bet on it.
The whole idea behind the company was bet that once they capture the majority of market via aggressive expansion, the self driving auto will hit the market allowing them to cut out people from the business.
Seems like they underestimated and going to crash (or they pivot and change the model to actually include human drivers as part of the business).
