I’m talk about “you” figuratively, as in one of the middle-man businesses that only exist to make money off of other people’s work, not “you” literally.

Doordash and other such services merely a convenient way to connect restaurants to more delivery drivers instead of hiring their own. On the surface that’s a decent business model. In reality, it just exploits drivers and charges restaurants for the privilege, and then charges customers and asks for tips that don’t necessarily all go to the drivers. At some point though, customers are going to decide its too expensive, or in this case stop tipping which only results in worse service and complaints. It’s already happening. When real taxi services charge less for delivery, a service they use to provide before these fake taxi companies started, then the tides will turn. Unless Doordash can exploit their drivers more, in which case they risk losing drivers. That’s capitalism…your company is as much a customer as it is a service provider, but most companies refuse to accept that and instead exploit their workers. That’s why laws should exist to prevent that. That’s why we should demand those laws, instead of just subsidizing the wages of workers through the company that’s exploiting them in the first place.
