Maybe they don’t like working for someone or want to work from home or are in school or like a flex schedule or maybe they are an unpleasant person who keeps getting fired. Whose business is it to prevent them from working? The goal of AB5 and similar is to force someone to create a “good” job with all the union perqs when there may be no such job. It is typical Leftist ploy to try to force employers to provide more benefits (fight for 15 for example) and to not trust people to work independently.
