I’ve heard the phrase, yes. I don’t base my philosophy on whether clever-sounding phrases exist.
There’s no evidence to suggest that lack of a minimum wage results in everyone earning essentially zero wages, which is all I can imagine that phrase to mean.
There is, however, evidence that minimum wages lead to unemployment. There’s also evidence to suggest unemployment is a horrible state to exist in.
There’s no logic in that. Are you saying this gig is literally the only work you could feasibly be doing? If Uber hadn’t existed, you’d just be poor and destitute without any alternatives?
There are many people in society that yes this is all they could do. Yes they used to just be poor and leeching off friends and family for support and shelter. Not everyone is educated and well adjusted an Alarming number of people aren’t.
We have minimum wage for a reason. We can’t allow companies to have a race to the bottom.
We have minimum wage because we have decided it’s better to force some people to zero in order that others may have a little more.
Well, also because people refuse to process the logic on that, because acknowledging what I just said would cause them to reconsider their position.
I can’t imagine the series of incidents in your life that led you to draw such a wrong conclusion and yet call it logic.
You’ve really never heard the phrase “race to the bottom”?

I fail to see that being realistic, at all.

85% of people with aspergers are unemployed.
And how many of them are employed by Uber? My guess is it’s a very low amount.
