>such as the fact that ride sharing makes driving unreliable as a source of income.

That's a terrible reason. Taxi drivers also have an unreliable source of income with the burden of medallion rent in some of the larger cities.

Do you also boycott all construction since that is also unreliable for basic laborers?

The parent’s point was that ridesharing makes life worse for other paid drivers.

If Taskrabbit started sabotaging income for highway construction workers I might avoid it (although to be fair I’ve never used it).
