Kinda missing the point. Most people "trapped" in bad "welfare" like conditions:
1. don't have access to affordable child care options.
2. don't have access to affordable child healthcare options.
3. don't have access to affordable transportation
4. can't get inexpensive insurance.
5. have drug and alcohol addictions. (do I want more people like that on the road)<p>Since none of these companies promise any kind of quantity per day. Renting a car for the day or paying for insurance for the month or child care for day to get 2 gigs per day doesn't help anybody but Uber or the other gig companies. Also, you would still need transportation for running errands for taskrabbit, postmates etc.<p>Not that there aren't was to make something like this work but they require to much regulation and complication for people that want to solve the worlds problems with sound bytes.
