> Uber basically figured out how to be a cab company without having employees
Take a look around and you'll find that basically every company has been trying to do that in America for a long time.
The administration staff at many businesses is all outsourced to staffing agencies.
Hiring almost everywhere is outsourced to recruiting agencies.
I know a number of multi-billion dollar corporations pumping hundreds of millions into their tech divisions, where > 95% of the employees are staffed from IT staffing agencies/consultancies.
Nobody employs a landscaper, unless they're a landscaping company.
It appears to be a big secret, but everyone contracts out everything these days. Uber is doing it on the most individual scale, in the most streamlined way I've ever seen. I don't happen to think that's as bad as everyone else does.
