Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy call remote work a 'Covid-era privilege.' Economists say it's here to stay
Economists say the work-from-home trend, which was widespread during the pandemic, won't diminish to its pre-Covid level because it's profitable for employers.
KEY POINTS
- Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, whom President-elect Donald Trump appointed to lead a new government efficiency team, said they intend to call federal employees back to the office five days a week.
- Companies such as Amazon and The Washington Post are adopting a similar policy in 2025.
- But many companies will keep remote or hybrid work arrangements, largely because they boost profits, economists said.
- Some view return-to-office mandates as a stealthy way to reduce employee head count.

Billionaires need to be taxed out of existance.
That's certainly one of the two ways.
Elon is probably only carrying that child on his shoulders all the time now as a human shield.
I thought he was practicing to do that with Trump.
It would be nice to see poo trickling down Elon's back every day
If he'd ever actually parented any of his children he'd have already experienced that at least once.
Which is how you know he knows fuck-all about America, cause we're kinda indifferent to both collateral casualties and gun violence being the number one cause of death for children.
I unironically believe this to be true.
What's the other one? Saving a 't' in the process?

No taxation without as... I mean representation?
At least until everyone has homes, food, healthcare, freedom, and education.
naw. keep the tax around, keep them from coming back.
I was being sarcastic. You can't have billionaires without exploiting everyone's basic human needs for food, shelter, safety, healthcare, or freedom, and they'll figure that out with a proper education.
