The Line: The Sharing Economy In New Mexico

January 15, 2016 – Websites like AirBnb and apps like Uber make it easy to connect with local people who want to offer a place to stay or a ride around town. But what’s now known as the sharing economy could have a financial impact on the city of Santa Fe.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reported  in December on how unauthorized rentals in the state’s capital are avoiding local laws. This week, host Gene Grant and the Line opinion panelists discuss the sharing economy and debate what local and state government officials should do to address industry changes.
