No, it’s absolutely true.

CEOs and executives are in contact with local, state, and federal government.

The push is aimed at getting everyone back into the gauntlet of bullshit. That is: paying for cars, gas, maintenance, meals, coffee, clothes, and all of the other crap that businesses scalp you for as part of your work day.

Trouble is, inflation has sucked away all of the extra money we had for those things. We can’t afford it now, and frankly we don’t have the mental health capacity to deal with the extra stress. We’ve also had that inflated over the last few years.

Businesses do not do anything without a profit motive. Government can make all the calls they want but it's the risk of devaluing real estate that is driving the return to work.
