It's very likely that by the time the pricing competition is concluded (with Uber as the obvious winner), the drivers will be coming under competitive threat from autonomous tech (which will severely limit their leverage for higher wages). I don't expect there will be an outcome where being an Uber or Lyft driver is, on average, going to ever be a good job.

Why would a job that nearly anyone can do, that has no significant barrier to entry, and where the demand at any given price is finite ever "be a good job"?

Shouldn't all jobs be good?
