Talking about Hispanics, I just saw a group of 5 Hispanic men working on a construction project down the street. This was so unusual that I stopped right there with my pram and gawked. There are many construction projects going on in the area but I never saw a single Hispanic anywhere. I would almost feel less surprised if I saw a group of 5 elephants hanging around that construction site.
Sorry, but I couldn’t wait for your next link encyclopedia.

Uber officially enters the subprime loan business. With Saudi money, in a deal secured by Obama’s former presidential campaign manager.
“Uber, which is now valued at $62.5 billion, can only make money if tens of thousands of people sign up as drivers. That’s because 50 percent of Uber drivers quit after just six months.
Unfortunately, Xchange Leasing sounds more like a payday-loan racket built into a company store. The lease increases the company’s control over the driver, who Uber still insists is nothing more than an “independent” contractor.
How is someone independent when Uber controls access to customers, sets the billing rates, demands a minimum number of hours and owns the car and the predatory lease on it?”

“I can think of another way Uber could find good cars. The company could buy the cars itself. But no, of course not, because Uber’s entire model is built upon outsourcing all risk and obligation onto the drivers while maintaining control over anything that makes profit.”
