I love the free market ideal, but the reality is that the gov't will fuck up your business.
Since the DNC holds political sway, and is the most likely to pass a law or start proceedings against your business it's best to make friends with them.
It's like police in Mexico, the smart people pay off the first cop they see before they end up having to pay off the entire precinct.
The reality is that the way companies like Uber and AirBNB will thrive is by paying off the DNC so that suddenly city council is restricting opportunities to minorities (by not letting them sublet / drive cabs) rather than a AirBNB / Uber restricting opportunities for minorities by under cutting cabs / hotels.
