    Conceptually I’m 100% for it. In reality I’m sure theres going to be unintended consequences that im not seeing.

    If it can be made to work like it sounds like it should, we need it and we need it bad.

      Unintended consequences, or just ones you aren’t aware of?

      There’s lots of known things that will happen, both good and bad.

      • A significant de-urbanization would be likely, similar to what we saw with remote work during COVID
      • There would be a drop in certain types of crime
      • A small chunk of the population would become absolute shut-ins, and likely become very mentally unwell
      • Divorce would probably go up
      • The birth rate would likely also go up
