The shared use of items is not a recent invention. Sharing makes sense - both economically, ecologically, and socially. Economic prosperity and the often straightforward access to capital today allow for the rapid satisfaction of almost all our needs. Advertising emphasizes: It's not just about utility, but above all, owning that makes us happy! Ownership is often a status symbol. Those who share cannot define themselves by objects - one of the main reasons why we still cling so much to our own possessions. This also applies to tools. Hardly anyone needs a pipe wrench, a shovel, or a hammer on a daily basis. Statistically, a drill only drills for about an hour in its lifetime, just a few minutes a year - the rest of the time it sits in the cupboard. During this unproductive time, anyone could use it.
