&gt;  Someone&#x27;s gotta pay. Right now it&#x27;s the drivers paying via not having benefits.<p>As a contractor you always pay for your own benefits.  Every contractor does this (or chooses not to on their on volition).  Every driver KNOWS they are a contractor, they should know what comes with being one, and it&#x27;s no ones fault but their own if they don&#x27;t.
