Uber and Lyft are paying drivers less than minimum wage

I have been driving for Uber for a year now, and I have witnessed the dramatic decrease in wages of the drivers.
The drivers are the backbone of this industry, without the drivers, Uber and Lyft are just useless applications on smartphones.
I, among thousands of other drivers, demand a request to an increase in wages. We, the drivers, are sacrificing our investment (our vehicles), our health and time for a job that pays us less than a minimum wage job.
If you are an Uber or a Lyft driver, then I kindly ask you to sign this petition. Let them hear our voices. We are being treated unfairly. At the end of the fiscal year, the cost of car maintenance, taxes and fees will be close to what we have made throughout the year, meaning we are working for Uber and Lyft for free. Please sign this petition and fight for your right to a deserving wage. Thank you
Al, a full time driver.
