Biden wants to follow foolish California and ban freelancing — putting millions out of work
The Labor Department just imposed 300 pages of new regulations to reclassify many individual contractors as payroll employees.
CNBC claims this could help freelancers “recover lost wages.”
That’s just nonsense.
The new rules will make it harder for some freelancers to support a family.
It will also make it harder for them to do what they want to do.
I know this because I saw what happened in California.
Four years ago, unions got Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez to push through a new law that reclassified gig workers.
They were told they’d get higher wages, overtime and other benefits.
Clueless media liked that.
Vox called the law “a big win for workers everywhere.”
Ha! A few months later, Vox Media laid off hundreds of freelancers.

Anathema, We aint havin that shite.
I keep hearing that the bureaucrats in DC and this administration in general are stupid, incompetent, economically illiterate..
300 pages implies intent.

There shouldnt be a single law, bill, or regulation that is 300 pages.
If something is that big you just know they are trying to hide something in it.

It is just completely insane how ignorant our supposed leaders are about simple shite that real people do in this world.
Rules like this pretty much completely gut the gig economy. And a lot of people love the freedom of being "gig" people.
These idiot leaders actually think that if you tell the Bar that it must treat their bar bands like regular employees, the bar will keep the band.
It's lunacy.

If it's a regulation, it could be hundreds of pages of responding to comments after the comment period and not really the actual regulation. Just FYI.

They’re not screwing anything up. It’s intentional.
Their goal is to impoverish all of us.
Thanks, Democrat voters. You dumb bastards.

I wish they'd do it all right now.
Light the fuse.
Let's rock!
