The Sharing Economy, How our world has changed.

The world's new leading companies have one thing in common, the consumer is the real player. All that these entities have really done is creat the medium where all this business is done. So, what does it mean for the consumer in the future?

Empowerment. The make-up of major business is more in our hands than ever. Companies are building platforms around us. Using our feedback to forever better them, but this also leads us to a major problem of where do we go from here. When the consumer already controls the market at hand how is any individual supposed to really get ahead of each other. Our lust for a better capitalistic society has ushered us to a stale mate of business because at this point even the things we own are making other companies money.
