I am not 100% clear on the math here, but it does seem like the Uber and Lyft innovate more in accounting, tax-dodging and sidestepping regulation than they do in any real technology. Their value to society is seems marginal to possibly negative.

They count on drivers being enticed by the apparently income without realizing the true net gain. Hidden expenses include: vehicle depreciation, repairs, gas, etc.

If those expenses aren’t taken into account, the jobs seem pretty decent. If you take those into account drivers would realize they’re making far less than they think.
