Show Notes
Janelle Orsi (www.theselc.org) discusses the role her important NGO plays in developing the legal tools for the evolving sharing economy, from cooperatives to urban agriculture. We also discuss the need for the sharing of the platform rents entrepreneurs such as Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook) have enjoyed. This builds on past shows trying to brainstorm a suitable economic formula for sharing the rents between participants and the producers of such platforms.
