I had the same thought. As in, what are Uber drivers thinking when they realize that Uber is spending it's horde on putting them out of work? What I guess is that making some money now is fine and if they are put out of work in the future, they'll deal with it at that time. People are prone to rationalize the future in favor of the present. The more fascinating question is what commerce and employment will look like in 20 years. Do HP, IBM and Oracle survive? How about Marriott and Starwood? Avis? General Motors? MacDonald's? And definitely, anyone who drives for a living is going to find themselves re-training for a new career. Industrial automation is accelerating, but also driving down the cost of goods... I'd better stop.
