    Because this, and because banks set TONS of government policy around the world. Oh, not officially, but they do.

    You read stories like this and realize that we're all just serfs to them, and they're not shy about saying so, in their coded way.

    They are all (banks and politicos) heavily invested in urban, commercial real estate. A lot of that revenue is gone forever now that remote work has become the "new normal" (hate that phrase too, don't throw things). They are going to have to find new streams of income now that they don't have a captive market in the big cities. They certainly won't take the hit themselves.

    "A big chunk of people have disconnected themselves from the face-to-face world yet are still leading a full economic life. That means remote workers are contributing less to the infrastructure of the economy whilst still receiving its benefits."

    Where do people come up with these fantasies? The only thing people are not paying are gas taxes, road tolls, public transportation, and parking fees. But the requirements to maintain the same are reduced as well.

    I beg to differ.

    Income tax is modern day slavery.

    Think about it back in the day if a slave ran away, armed men with guns would track them down cuff them up and take away their freedom.

    Today if you run away from income tax, armed men and women because we have progressed as a society will track you down and take away your freedom.
