But many of our work is to work on this zooming slider, so that you can see a plurality of configurations. It’s not just UberX versus the government. It’s also the local temples, local churches, the people who drive each other to work, the people who are also skirting the law a little bit but for their local benefit, and so on. And when a conversation centers around how to empower the local drivers, co-ops, temples, and churches to make the hard-to-reach public transportation places better, then Uber has something to say of course, but it’s just one of the many stakeholders, instead of a top-down profit seeking optimizer. And if you can make the people who concentrate on the two ends of the slider, concentrate a little bit on the bunches of 1000s of people level, then you already created proof of existence of such possibilities.
