    Okay…

    Give me the math of how this new wage would help you “make a killing”.

    Keep in mind that this wage merely sets a floor for the specific-minutes when you have a fare.

      Both can be true! There’s a reason I quit that shit years ago.

        I’m waiting for the math… Support your claim that you would “make a killing”.

        I don’t see how you would…

        The most you could possibly make would be $32.50 in an hour… (and that’s ONLY if you had a fare for ALL 60 minutes of an hour… and somehow still made less than $32.50 from those fares).

        …And you’d be driving your own car and burning gas for that whole hour…

        So show me (with math) how you’d be “making a killing”.
