I agree - many folks like having flexibility. This could be an example of a subset of disgruntled workers and their lawyers killing the Golden Goose. Of course I still believe that the Ubers of the world need to follow labor laws.

If the Golden Goose is indeed slain, it will also be due to the sharing companies willfully ignoring legal issues to keep pushing growth, Uber being the prime example.

Asking for forgiveness, not permission works sometimes but eventually you do have to deal with the legalities.
