The sooner the 'sharing economy' is wiped out the better. It's a bunch of psychopathic corporate pricks pretending they're hip while making life shit and miserable for the real people they're exploiting.

I don't like the idea of buy to let properties. Owning a fleet of self operating cars sounds like it's rather more fun and achievable and I assume that no matter what happens there has to be a human in there somewhere in the chain.
