I dont go to El Monte. Its a shithole. And yes, it covers ONLY El Monte and the issue is will Uber raise the rates 10 times once you enter any El Monte zip code?

Yeah, who else would kill those two businesses in their jurisdiction?
Pretty much had to be Los Angeles, San Francisco, or New York.

The purpose of setting the pay rate to $30, is to eliminate Uber and Lyft from being able to operate in the city. It is for the benefit of local cab outfits.

They should throw in free immunizations for typhus too.

many employers with public contact employees pay for TB tests . The illegals have much high level of TB than what americans have.

"The first politician to propose $1,000 hr across the board - wins." And why not?
The foggy brained Robert Mueller made over a thousand
dollars per hour on the taxpayer's dime to produce
a stupid report of his ridiculous, pointless investigation.

Having no statistics at all, I would estimate that the great majority of Uber drivers earn something like $5 an hour, maybe less, considering car expenses and gas.

What was that word I’m trying to remember?
Oh, yeah: SOCIALISM.

Mueller: My biggest mistake was not stretching out those billable hours at least another year and a half. Oh, well.

This must be an attempt to reduce carbon emissions. Ridership will drop like a rock. Actual take home wages will avalanche in time to nonexistence.

my first full time job and wore a tie, 3.10 at General Dynamics circa 1967. I think the min wage was 1.25

They aren’t paying LA county employees that much.
I know one and know what she’s making. She told me.

Each of us should demand 30 bucks an hour from the politicians on Capitol Hill for the way they screw with us unmercifully day in and day out.

Both Uber and Lyft are hemorrhaging money so it just a question of time before they both go under in the not too distant future like months.
Maybe they should write a boll guaranteeing unemployed uber/lyft drivers a minimum wage - sort of like unemployment checks ...

Make it $130, then they’ll all get rich. Or, driverless cars will be fielded much quicker.
