As we contemplate the economic meltdown that 40 years of increasing income disparity and overseas outsourcing has brought the US, we wonder: where will the jobs come from?
These women are not wondering. They are banding together to create businesses. This group, the Apple Eco-friendly Cleaning Cooperative, is a collective of five Mexican women living in New York City who got tired of working odd gigs and wanted more control of their careers. After meeting at a Brooklyn day laborer hiring site, where they would compete for cleaning jobs with dozens of other women, the quintet decided go into business for themselves, and formed an LLC.
If you want to shape your own destiny, start a business.
