High gas prices impacting rideshare and delivery drivers

Look up the taxi history especially new york city drivers made thousands to millions. This why they created lyft etc. To bribg shackles to the money making systemic design. Theyre gonna crush us. Old system dying the Rothschild been silenced if not topped out. Trumps family gonna be the new era but in it comes chaos

The more you drive, the more an EV is the best choice.

I been doing ubereats/doordash on the side since 2018, to cover for my leisure things ans gas money, its not sustainable for a full time job anymore. Wear and tear on your vehicle, you get to pay for your own insurance and fuel. These 3rd party apps dont provide anything.

Why does the American government allow company’s like this to use tactics like this?

Dont blame the President. Remember, Biden said clearly the president has no control over gas prices. If you want to talk about the war. Lets talk about the millions Biden funded to Ukraine and caused gas to rise.

I’d love to get gas at those prices. That’s cheap try $6 + in California

More work for me in la there’s no more drivers 😂

The current gasoline price in Israel is ILS 8.32 per liter or USD 2.83 per liter and was updated on 04-May-2026. This year, the exclusive list includes an unprecedented number of Israeli billionaires: 52 individuals holding Israeli citizenship – including a small number of Israeli billionaires with dual citizenship who maintain significant local business operations and assets in Israel.

That is because Israel gets over 3 billion dollars of US tax payer money every year n has the largest lobbing for them in the house, senate, and congress. That's over 12 million dollars of tax payer money a day for a country of approx. 10 million. However, Egypt Syria, Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Yeman, Sudan, and many others can never say the same.

There is no 2 parties . Its one party called aipac.

That's because Hillary Clinton (D-NY) received $4,157,233 from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee(AIPIC). AIPIC which is the largest pro Israeli lobbyists in the USA. According to AIPIC they paid Joe Biden (D-DE) $4,346,264, Rubio, Marco (R- FL) $1,012,263 , McConnell, Mitch (R-KY) $1,953,160, Kirk, Mark (R-IL) $2,294,469, DeSamtis, Ron (R-FL) $ 116,200, Lindsay Graham(R-SC) $ 1,000,580, Tulsi Gabbard(R-HI) $ 39,950; JD Vance $ 167,324 ; Ben Shapiro $ 6,000,000 ; Ted Cruz $ 1,872,592 (R-TX) and included supporting 365 pro-Israel Democratic and Republican candidates. I would have more respect if many politicians would work for people that voted for them rather than being bought out.

Base pay for each food order is 2.25

It cost $70 to fill up a 4 cylinder with regular lol. You have to use that entire tank to make money, refill then use that entire tank if wanna have a good day. And guess what? You still need fuel for next shift tomorrow. Let’s not forget about tires, brakes, don’t get me started on vehicle equity and losing value due to excessive mileage. And… Insurance rates sky rocket or flat out drop young find out doing ride share. Why not pay more for insurance you ask? Because uber isn’t going to pay triple the rates for that. Used to be able to make $300 in a 12 hour shift during pandemic. Could pull $1000 a week. If had a cheap cash car. That was $4000 a month. Nearly $50,000 a year. But… Inflation made cost of living to the point where matter how much you drive. I drove 12 hours on Lyft then on uber back to back a recent hurricane. Driving through flood zones risking my health and vehicle for what? $500

Sleepy Joe Biden had the national average over $5 I didn't hear anybody complaining the Democrats didn't say a word when sleepy Joe had it up

By that time companies rises their profit lines

what are people who rent cars using credit cards with annual fees or free cards?

this has been the topic by the water cooler.

I aint trying to hear complaining about gas under $5/gal. Try doing rideshare in California.

What would happen hypothetically, right if people had to pay $36 to $40?\nPer gallon for gas like they do in cuba

At least DoorDash gives its drivers an extra 15 dollars every week to cover the expanse. 🤪

Ride-share companies need to leave their drivers with more on their checks. Restaurant & hospitality need to pay their severs & staff more. They are looking for us to help our fellow consumer, while they lay back with their pockets fat, & earnings reports thriving.

Uber and lyft sre always looking for people to take advantage of their drivers and customers. They are disgusting !

Ridesharing is supposed to be a supplement income. Ideally you want to get a full-time job with benefits and use Uber and Lyft to bridge the gap in the expenses of life. It was never meant to be a 7-Day 12-hour job. That's pretty much how much you have to drive to live off Uber or Lyft alone. I work one full-time and one part-time job on top of uber and Lyft. I make about three or four hundred a week. That is just to help me get by and pay for my car and stuff for getting to my other jobs.

Hell under Biden prices were higher, so know all of a sudden ohhhh we all going to hell

I just paid $64 to Lyft from Astoria, Queens to JFK Airport on a Sunday night with no tip included. It’s absolute madness

Thank trump for starting a war that caused this. More failures of America.

Don't go to McDonald's next week. Easy solution so stop griping.

No trump said your not essentially eat shit ig no hourly for us

All these type of drivers should expect more pain at the pump. This needless war continues to escalate due to 4547 and his misadministration minions and liars. I know someone relatively new to being a Lyft driver that isn't stacking as much as he/she thought they would. Timing is everything. Then there is market oil/gas price manipulation.

Looking forward to $10 a gallon 😊

The fluctuations with gas prices is nothing new. One has to anticpate such things.

Man I couldn’t be a uber driver for 10 years? Not even worth it

Crazy how I was a federal employee laid off based off Trump. Became a software engineer got laid off based off trumps budget cuts. Became an Uber driver now I’m not making any profits because of the high gas prices. I can’t escape these mfs.

What until it hits 6and 7.

Gas keeps going up see what happens soon...

Yeah, I have started declining everything below $10 and I won't drive more miles to get to you than your going (ex: 10 miles to PU and you're going a mile down the road) please, I am not wasting my gas and time to take you a walkable distance. Especially for $3.50. 😂😂😂😂😂. I started studying for my CDL i wanna get out of the Rideshare/delivery business damaging my car and sapping my energy for no pay. If a client is paying $80, I should be getting $65, not $19.

Somehow, he didn't mention that oil company profits are at an all time high and that they pay no federal taxes. Maybe it's time to tax the hell out of the oil companies and impose government controlled oil and gas prices so that citizens can legitimately blame the government for higher gas prices.

DoorDash in Uber need to pay and they need to get rid of that tear program specially why gas prices are high. They just stupid and dumb as hell and they know gas is four dollars a gallon and they still send two and three dollar order which is ridiculous should be against the law.

That's fine. We voted for this and believe in President Trump's long term plan. Pain and high prices are temporary, but America's longevity, safety, and prosperity are forever

Not affecting me. Electric vehicles FTW!

Funny how yall bitches were hating on Teslas now all of you are crying over gas prices while im paying cents on the gallon pulling 400$ days 😂😂😂

Unfortunately my Current situation
Chicago / Indiana

That's not bad. I paid $6.07 per Gal today in California.

Hope you all that voted Trump are happy!

Start your own service. Get a list

I am tired of hearing people say that delivery drivers make the choice to do this or that as an excuse for not taking care of them. This is the responsibility of the company, and if you know you're ordering something and having it delivered, you are aware where the restaurant is, where your house is, how far away the restaurant is, and your right to tip or not.I always min tip 2 dollars per mile when I order ... Don't worry about the company.. worry about the driver

I noticed the more prices rise the smaller your tips get in door dash. People trying to tip $2.50 for a 15 mile trip. Makes it worse when dash says an area has a 5 minute wait that turns into an hour half the time

I was making pretty good $$ before all this nonsense, had to give up driving, gas is 6.55 in cali.

Thank a Republican in your life for that cunt, trump.

Know who it’s not affecting? Uber, lyft and DoorDash. They dgaf

TRUMPflation.

I just drive less for rideshare.
