" The gig economy is attractive for the same reasons that it’s exploitative. It preys on people who have not been casted into the information economy, as they didn’t have access to the requisite credentialing or can’t work a traditional job—they might be a caregiver, have a health condition, or just not speak great English. Uber preys on the disenfranchised, and offers subminimum wage work that is flexible and has few start-up costs. Is this a failure of character and code on the part of Uber management and their board, or an indictment on our society, which has allowed these cohorts of vulnerability to form in the millions? The answer is yes. "
