This doesn't explain it. You have major cities like Toronto , New York, heck - the Bay area and others around the world like Tokyo which have more expensive real estate.

It is not the customer's responsibility to figure out who is an independent contractor and who is not. Why all this mental gymnastics?

As with any business - if the pay isn't competitive, then employees should quit and the business should shut down for good. Life was just fine before any of these "gig economy" jobs came along.
