Crony capitalism at its finest.  

Message from Alaska State Senators to small business owners in Alaska: f--- you!  Some little tour company in Seward got a million dollar fine a couple of years ago for the same thing that Uber and Lyft do.  Where was the Alaska Senate then?  

Oh sorry, little tour company owner, you don't have enough political clout 'cause you didn't make enough campaign donations to us, and you didn't pay enough internet trolls to post on local newspaper websites in your favor...

All of us will be paying Uber and Lyft's bills when their drivers get hurt and there is no worker's compensation insurance to cover their injuries.

What's the saying?  Privatize the profit and socialize the losses?  That's what is happening with this bad bill.
