Pro-consumer.

Consumers overwhelming support ridesharing because of how cheap it is.

Also, if a consumer doesn't like these service, they are free to use any number of other transportation services.

That is what this fight is about. Letting consumers decide for themselves which services they prefer.

Consumers would support slavery if it was legal, hence labor laws and regulations. Just because you're a tech platform doesn't mean you're a special snowflake.

Consumers may choose from any service that follows regulations set forth by government.

Here's the thing, you can be pro-consumer without being anti-worker. Uber just haven't figured out how to do that.
