It's pretty mindblowing how Uber and AirBnB have convinced people the theft of worker and consumer protections and affordable housing is "sharing".

@Burnley123 This is post-fordism. Fordism had a few merits.

@MethDozer Indeed: Union membership, contracts, higher pay (to buy the cars) etc. Regular hours too.

@Amylynne because on it's surface AirBnB poses and is intended as a limited occurance home renting service. Like renting out your home while on vacation for a week or the family cottage on a weekend yall aren't there.

I practice though they haven't upheld their own rules and many local laws and you have people buying homes, often paying over market value to secure them, with the sole intention of AirBnB ing it often buying and owning large sections of entire neighborhoods opersting as hotels and landlords without any if the hotel or landlord regulations and responsibilities.
