The People have voted and they desire low cost transportation options more so than protecting vulnerable transportation workers.

The state will not get its payroll tax.

The employees will not get their benefits.

Wait till the people get to vote on public sector pension plans...

The state gets its payroll tax, being an independent contractor doesn't prevent that.

The drivers will get their benefits, prop 22 added benefits to them without making them employees.

The big tax loss is all the removal of deductions that the state gets if they’re employees, which nobody talks about with AB5 on the govt side because they know it wouldn’t go over well.
