| Something remarkable emerged as a result of the Great Recession of the early twenty-first century: a sharing economy. Among the loss of jobs and mortgages and uncertainty about the future, people got creative with the way they earned and spent their money. Democratic platforms like Uber and Airbnb have skyrocketed in popularity, prompting tighter government regulations. Are they the answer to an economy increasingly controlled by giant corporations? Or are they just a different way for people to profit from and exploit struggling workers? Readers learn more from viewpoints written by today's experts. |
