Gross take. Entitled, self-centered, and a ham-handed attempt to co-opt the term "wealth transfer". If you really have this little regard for folks who actually work for a living you should get in your car and go get your own shit.

Except everyone else also works for a living? Wealth transfer is a great descriptor of what that type of policy making leads to since it is in fact exactly taking money from delivery app users and giving to delivery app drivers. Do you disagree with this dynamic? If so where do you think the money for paying these drivers extra comes from?

The amount of people using food delivery apps is some 2.31 billion worldwide. Are you suggesting that some 1/3 of the human population who would prefer to pay less for their food delivery all don't work for a living?
