Uber has to start paying drivers living wages instead of pennies on the dollar.
This will impact customers/prices most

It's stupid because the vast majority of uber drivers did this as a side hustle so they didn't have to get cucked by their other jobs. This is just going to force many current uber drivers to be wagies to other jobs where they have way less control over when and how much they work. The whole "Great Resignation" was fueled by these new app based side hustles and it was good for the working class.
I'm betting the cute twink butt taxi lobby was responsible for this. They know this is gonna result in the Uber userbase being shrunk from both ends.

Uber mouthpiece
Side hustle Uber drives have been replaced by migrant workers who can afford to do it 12h a day.

Nope, most drivers are still part time. Even the multiappmaxxers do so in bursts, not every week like regular wagies.
And the pakis, jeets, and somalis that do this 24/7 are liable to get screwed over once prices go up and the customer base dwindles. If Uber driving is so awful why don't these migrants take other full-time jobs with benefits like healthcare? It's because they either can't do the work or don't want to cuck themselves to working around strict schedules and bosses.
It's pretty ironic how these measures are going to hurt the people that they're intended to help in the first place.

I mean if you're a sexy Indian dude on an immigrant visa your only options are Uber or working illegally for a pizza shop.
And if prices go up wages go down and only migrants will afford to do it.
I know because it's the same in my home town. The only people who deal with Uber's bs and tight wages are immigrants who have nowhere else to work.
Not like you can apply to a job you are trained for as an immigrant because of actual racism.
