Peter Thompson's curator insight, March 18, 1:02 PM

Interesting infographic on all the different x-preneurs of the future (now?) business.

Sherry Griffin's curator insight, April 5, 1:39 PM

Interesting graphic.  The savings behind hiring an Independent Contractor (IC) shown is due to ICs not needing to provide themselves with Workers Comp or Unemployment Insurance (in general, varies from state to state and I haven't researched all 50 states to confidently say it is the same in all states).  However, the premise is a little off.  Google and the big tech companies do want employees because they want control and complete ownership of what their workers do.  The issues with the big tech companies currently is that they are hiring skills for specific projects and then discarding the employee rather than developing him/her.  That is why they are looking to obtain foreign worker visas.
