It seems to me that since Federal taxes, medicare and social security taxes are affected when these jobs are outlawed, the Federal government may have a right to intervene in how these gig jobs are being outlawed by cities and states. It’s not just a simple 10th amendment issue as federal tax collections are being affected when states and cities ban jobs they don’t like...
