How the New Age Judgement Prone Millennial and Progressive Eats its own and all Others.

Behind every Millennial and Progressive (not all millennials are Progressive but a significant portion are), is a crazed, self justified Capitalist Pig waiting to emerge.

Here are just two examples, plenty more exist. Juno RideShare  started as a counter to Uber and Lyft. It was supposed to be Driver friendly and over time was going to share 50% of the Company with its Drivers. 

Then one day someone offered the creator of Juno 200 million dollars to co own Juno. The offer was accepted and apparently Juno has become more like Uber and Lyft.

Purple Bricks is a no frills Real Estate Sales App who is advertising on Television the message not to waste ones money using an actual old school Realtor to sell one's home, that thousands could be saved by using Purple Bricks. The amount of money being spent on Television Advertising is most likely in the millions of dollars. 

The purpose of both New Age Transactions mentioned above is similar; figure out a way to streamline a service so the creator of the streamlined service can walk away a multi millionaire and then be highly regarded by everyone else. Even though the advantages of streamlining any service is obvious, it does come with the price of disenfranchising people in that same industry with perhaps 10 to 20 years of experience, or more.

In the case of Juno, I am surprised no lawsuit was filed. The sale of Juno was based on the recruitment of Drivers who were promised specific perks that created Juno's original Market value. Seems like the Juno Drivers should have been compensated for the value they helped create. 

In the New Age of Self Righteous Indignation about the past, it is amazing what is being tolerated by the same group of people when it comes to profiteering off of their fellow Millennial.

It's interesting how the mindset that wants to throw out Statutes of Limitations such as a lifetime political ban on anyone who has ever wore blackface, doesn't have the backbone to protect what was taken from Juno Drivers.

Classism is alive and well in the Millennial / Progressive community.
