Gustav Intervention Needed
Door dash increasingly feels to me like a self-inflicted tax on the poor
According to this, 50% of Door Dash users have incomes below the household median. They specifically note that "Income level doesn’t dictate order value or frequency."

On its face, it might seem commendable that different incomes partake equally. But should they? Given how DD inflates the price of a meal, sure seems like it should be treated as a luxury good, with higher earners participating at a higher rate.
