See the article I link to above. IF they are independent then they should be able to set the price themselves else it is Price fixing.
No, it isn't. Uber and Lyft are merely broadcasting the fact that passenger A is looking to go from here to there. If you choose to accept this opportunity, here is what it pays.
This is akin to a trucking company that uses independent contractor drivers. The company publishes available routes and the price that will be paid for the route. Independent contractor drivers are free to pick and choose the load they want to carry. The trucking company sets the rates for the loads, but, that fact does not make the independent contractor drivers employees of the trucking company.
Im not going to debate Law with you. Read the article, I'm not making the claim, the author / other lawyers are.
That's a wise choice on your part because you are wrong.
I can't be wrong I have no opinion here, I am simply sharing knowledge (with links) to where I found said knowledge/opinions.
So you can argue the opinions and articles I shared are wrong, fine that's your opinion / right.
