Having been on the front lines of many a battle over public policy and managing risk in the shared economy for many years now, I have to give HUGE props to Emily for a talk that is both inspirational, while doing a remarkable job of aptly framing the issues. Well done!
The whole notion of perpetual economic growth is the problem if you dig beneath the surface. The planet is finite but people keep expanding and taking more of it.
Yup , drivers share 20% of every ride witn Lyft. The company owns no cars and has a willing army of drivers ready to under cut regulated and insured taxi drivers. What does a pimp do or in her case a madam. They take a cut of every trick. Lyft and Uber. literally Pimp Your Ride.
Here's what will happen if this really becomes a threat to the current system, unless it is managed very carefully with awareness of the danger. Agents will try to break the shared economy by signing up and then abusing it. The people you loan your car to will destroy it. This will be ideological, not merely cynical. It will be just like when a new store comes into town. The existing store will have people literally come in as "shoppers" and try to drive it out of business. Mop cleanups will be needed all the time. Shrinkage will be terrible. Motocycles and hot rods will do donuts in the parking lot, intimidating actual shoppers.
Sharing is great in a worthwhile context. But, people have no clue how the United States is being destroyed by design and are propagandized into their own demise.
Another model that involves money. "Sharing economy" is just another way to make money and can be exploitative to their volunteers, workers and the present system. The workers have to work several jobs to make enough to survive. Not relying on your tax money, money from government funded charity organization and money donation from people is the real sustainable movement: unlike some of these models under "sharing economy" that rent something in exchange for your money is just another profitable form of capitalism in disguise. Do some research who they took from to start their business.
There is no disguise, this is the ultimate form of capitalism, which is why it's so beautiful. While I don't agree with how some of these facilitators do business, the ones that allow the individual to set their own price (Airbnb, Turo, etc) a just awesome ways to escape from traditional jobs and gain wealth with relatively low risk.

UBI can also be on top of sharing economy as it does practically the same things with no strings attached
Makes a lot of sense.
+Bruce Warren it's nonsense

Strategic low placement of shirt to conceal assets.
That’s capitalism. Forcing people to work in places they don’t want to be at. Forcing people to work in places only the market values.
goddammit where is the subtitle??
