Who will pay into a system like that?

Part of the deal for Uber, Lyft, etc is to push off expenses into others. Auto maintenance and repairs is another example.

Changing the system doesn’t deal with the funding. Uber, Lyft, and others are trying to not be in the funding loop for this.

Or, should other companies subsidize funding this for people who work for the gigs?

Taxes, presumably.

It's kind of arbitrary to consider auto maintenance as being rightfully Uber's expense that's being pushed onto the car owner.
