Drivers rarely owned the medallion. They leased the cab for 8-12 hours and drove it on behalf of the medallion owner.

What a stupid process. It bothers me that farmers rarely own the land too. We can't shake our tendency to let wealth turn us into tiny little kings that live off the rent. (not so tiny in the case of farms, but you get it).

You will be glad to learn that most farmland is farmer owned:

I am glad to hear that. Thank you for correcting me.
Medallion is an artificial scarcity. Land is actually scarce.
