I see where they’re coming from, but wow this is tone deaf. I guess hispanic businesses are immune from COVID, and white businesses are privileged enough to run at a loss indefinitely?<p>Maybe they should just treat their drivers better. They’re essentially all economically vulnerable.<p>Imagine if they offered health and legal insurance to their “contractors” instead.

How does that work, legally?<p>I’m not a lawyer, but it seems like a competing business that didn’t get the discount could sue Uber for racial discrimination.

This will just create more animosity.
