2. Blocking Sharing Economy Fosters Union Protectionism
It is no secret that big business loves big government, and Hillary and Wall Street are two peas in a pod. Yet big business isn’t the only entity creating backroom deals with Democrats the likes of Clinton. Unions can be just as hazardous to a free and fair market.
An example of Unions attacking new capitalist outlets in the “sharing economy” was recently, when New York taxi unions pushed for legislation pushed a NYC city council bill that would put a cap on the number of Uber drivers which would be able to operate in the city. With big unions in bed with progressive candidates, the question should always be put forward as to whether or not the Democrats are really protecting the middle class consumers and entrepreneurs, or just serving union interests in eliminating competition?
