[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the Trump administration's position is that people who are not committed to their jobs need to start looking. They use willingness to be in person as a measure of that. It's an imperfect measure, to be sure, but there aren't a lot of good measures to be had. Performance reviews are not reliable and also there isn't anything the administration can do to fix that. But they can try to get people back in the offices.

They also want to revitalize the business districts that relied on people coming to work. Good or bad, we will all be better off for thriving brick and mortar businesses and less Chinese Amazon products.

I don't think it's a bad thing to shake this up. Change is hard. We may need to move to a smaller place to make it work. I don't know, but I try to understand the motivations for things and believe there is some good here.[/quote]

One of the local news stations ran a segment yesterday on Mayor Bowser.  She was strongly pushing feds returning to work.  The segment said she has been begging the Biden admin to enforce return to the office, and she actually flew down to Marlago to convince Trump to do this.

The reasons cited were revitalizing/saving the business downtown, and as a means to conbat the surging crime in DC over the past 4 years.

This return to work is not solely a trump thing.

It is actually a bipartisan measure between far right trump and far left mayor bowser.[/quote]

It's a bipartisan thing to fill the pockets of their rich property owning friends. If I go back, there will not be a dime spent in DC, I promise you that. [/quote]

I don’t think that’s fair. For right or wrong, many small to medium businesses were encouraged to put in businesses to support in office workers. Not just in DC but all over the country. These aren’t just rich property owning friends of Mayor Bowser. These are people who make less than the federal workers. Now they’re gone and crime is up. [/quote]

It has been demonstrated, many times, that federal workers do not spend money sufficient to prop up local business. They do not have the money, or the time to spend it.

Plus if they did, they'd be spending it their own towns where they currently work, and why is it OK to deprive those businesses to benefit DC businesses? If feds buying lunch actually mattered, the VA and MD governments would be opposing DC RTO to save their own local businesses. [/quote]
