[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love WFH more than anyone, but there’s no question that RTO is much better for the local economy. Lunches, metro rides, parking fees, dry cleaners, etc. [/quote] People at home still spend money, just on different things. PR has us thinking that certain businesses are entitled to our money and that it is our duty to give it to them. The government needlessly luring people out of the house to enrich certain businesses is corruption and also happens to be anti-free market for those who care about that.[/quote] This is just not true. I spend a lot less money when I wfh, zero gas, never walk out for a sandwich instead make one in my kitchen, don’t wear suits that need dry cleaning, etc. DC has lost a lot of small businesses since the pandemic started and you may not care about that but I’m glad the DC and federal government do.[/quote] For every one of the things you can list, I can list another thing you spend more on while WFH. All utilities bills are higher. Your grocery (vs eating out) budget goes up. You are running laundry more often, which wears out clothes faster in addition to jacking up the water bills. Etc. This is 95% about the preferences of the National Restaurant Association--the other NRA. [/quote]
