We're moving to an economy where a few major huge companies will do everything and hire contract workers (not full timers) to deliver services.
Uber and Airbnb are examples of service based companies where most of the liability and resources are put on the person contracting their services out. Because of this both of those companies have been able to expand globally exponentially over the last couple of years because they use YOUR existing assets (car/home) and don't owe you shyt in the way of benefits or severance.
Crazy thing is job prospects are so poor right now for many americans that they have no choice but to get hype over the prospect of making $20 a hour on short term contracts with companies like amazon. This + more robotics/automation will have shyt spooky in about another 20 yrs.
