I like how the title embraces the inevitable yet catastrophic nature of Uberisation (which is just privatization really). Like it comes for you, whether you want it or not. It leaves behind a trail of industries full of exploiteds and void of regulation, great phenomenon. You hear this nursing? It's coming for you. Firefighters? You betcha
US Firefighting started off in the Uber model
Step up from Roman firefighting.
I don't think the USA started our firefighters off with prolific arsonists.
You'd probably be wrong about that..
