This article describes the real reason behind the push back to the office. It’s about rich people gambling on real estate and now office buildings are empty.

These same people own newspapers and media channels which is why their crying voices are being pushed.

    There’s more to it than that. Corporations get massive tax breaks from the cities and States that they’re located in under the contingency that they maintain a minimum occupancy in their buildings. The government offers them this because they themselves profit immensely from all of the tolls, speeding tickets, parking fees, sales tax on gas and vehicle maintenance, tax on lunch, etc. Basically the government and corporations are conspiring together to create a scenario that necessitates you giving them a bunch of your money. It’s quite disgusting.
