For the Uber-users, the working class ought to aspire to the salary and benefits structure of a Starbucks barrista.
My second biggest complaint: these people are for the most part lazy and feel incredibly self-entitled. They fill our schools with brats who expect well-paying jobs but aren't hungry to actually do anything, and they fill law firms with the go-along-to-get-along types. Most of them could use a good stint out in the countryside, Maoist cultural revolution style, for a little while (perhaps not quite to the famine state the Chinese took it). Send them all to Cuba and let Castro reeducate them.

On your first point: I couldn't agree more. Pay people $20/hour and you will stimulate growth as those people have money to spend at businesses, some of which are local, others not, that will need to hire more workers.... If only people understood people.
As to your second-biggest complaint: we are all whores or thieves, the trick is figuring out which you are,
