“The key takeaway from our analysis is that remote work is shaping up to massively disrupt the value of commercial office real estate in the short and medium term,” the authors wrote.

    How can a state control who has to pay taxes to them when they can work everywhere and don't need to be physically in a building? The remote worker is a threat to (national) state hood as we know it.

    It could be Cybersyn or a global capitalism that destroys even national bonds. Of course there will be plenty people who still have to work in the real, be it to do care work, or reproductive work on one hand or productive work i.e. working with the industrial means of production.
