Ms. Botsman, I really appreciated your talk! Your vision of a new world characterized by community and shared access gives us hope; to be defined by one’s reputation rather than one’s credit rating is a worthy goal. We all now realize that we cannot gain surplus for ourselves by depriving anyone else, as our planet has a limited amount of resources left; if I consume more than what I need, some else is going to suffer. That being said, realization of this fact is not enough! We must learn how to properly relate to each other: we are interdependent. Your lecture expressed practical application of our communal instinct.

Interesting there are so few responses. Perhaps Rachel is far ahead of her audience.
