Sure, but then again, the Uber drivers know what their getting into. You might argue that they are underpaid, but it’s hard to argue that they are getting scammed or cheated: the arrangement is clear upfront, and the earnings follow not too long after.

But laws about minimum wage and employee rights are not optional. A company can't decide to offer a job below minimum wage and argue that the arrangement is clear upfront, and therefore ok.

Even if they know what they are getting into its minimum wage, not suggested minimal wage.
