"Tim's way of supporting local control like that starts with his software, which any community can use for free. It lets people list what they need and can offer each other. Each community group has its own unit of account for measuring how much members are sharing with others. The Collective doesn't advertise or sell data to advertisers. All Tim asks for is a small promise of goods or services from each group as payment in kind. It could be candles, garden honey, an old washing machine or a lift in a neighbor's car. The only money he has received for 15 years of building a free software platform was a three-year grant from the Ashoka Foundation."

"The TLC's proposed policy calls for a minimum pay standard of $17.22 per hour, the independent contractor equivalent of $15 per hour plus paid time off. The pay standard would be the first in the U.S. to apply to independent contractors. The TLC policy would increase driver pay for 85 percent of the drivers currently paid below the $17.22 standard. These drivers would receive an additional $6,345 per year. The net (after-expense) pay increase among these drivers would average 22.5 percent."

"this industry has, until recently, operated largely informally, with jobs secured by word-of-mouth. That's changing, as employers are increasingly turning to Uber-like services to find nannies, housecleaners and other care workers. These new gig economy companies, while making it easier for some people to find short-term work, have created hardships for others, and may leave many experienced care workers behind."

"The size of the gig economy reveals a lot about the forces affecting the welfare of American workers. In particular, understanding the difference between who chooses to be a gig worker and who is forced to work multiple jobs with no benefits out of necessity will help labor market experts (and employers) design policies for improving job quality and job security while maintaining flexibility.
