We hear a lot about how they get paid less per hour etc. but whether you're a taxi driver/courier through an app or for an employer, it's still the same boring job. If anything, surely it's better to decide your own hours (even at lower pay) than be bossed around?
Is the 'gig economy' really that bad?

It would be really funny if OP is a tenured prof making this argument.

Such left-wing idiots on this site. If it were so bad, WHY DO THE WORKERS ACCEPT THE WAGE ?
Some people don't get the simple idea of a decreasing demand for labor curve, and increasing supply of labour curve, and ECON101 concept of equilibrium.Are you familiar with the concept of subsistence, and the idea of an S-shaped labour supply curve which is very relevant when talking about low-paid workers?

Isn't it widely accepted now that the market for labor is not perfectly competative?
