The hypocrisy of “cheap disruption”

As Uber is preparing for its IPO, Airbnb continues to shelter us inexpensively, cheap air travel makes globe-trotters out of most of us, and Bengladesh keeps clothing us for next to nothing, we're clearly seeing that it's very easy to take advantage of what is super cheap in our daily lives and turn a blind eye on the exploitative or destructive new economy that has become a new normal within our lives.

Just like Facebook, most of us know that patronizing of these resources is very bad, but we keep going to the well... I might add: Just for how long will we continue and maintain a straight face?
