First, it's Uber, not Über.
Then we should all have a reality check.
All this sharing economy thing has gone a little bit too far now... It's masquerading as a revolutionary way to earn money for everybody except some greedy unions and lobbies that need to be "disrupted", and we don't see that it's just undercutting by spreading costs in an anticompetitive way. But much more important than that: the jobs they "create" are extremely weak, unprotected and they contribute to erode the middle class even more, all while centralizing wealth toward the top 1% that actually funds this sort of ventures.
I really don't get what's so revolutionary in all the services where "sharing" actually means "exploiting lower middle class people's free time or temporary unemployment to provide a service without giving any warranty for the workers, providing cheaper services for the upper middle class".
I understand and support those services where "sharing" keeps its real meaning. Like in car sharing or bike sharing, where you actually SHARE a car or a bike, and not someone else's cheap time.
