I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you. I'd never imagine that nice Mr. Musk would do that... Oh? He's been a total ass to workers at his other companies too you say? No, say it isn't so...

It's not a conspiracy at all. It's 100% driven by real estate and city tax incentives for office population and commerce traffic boosts to nearby businesses which the city has incentives to try and enforce

The problem is without the hard paper trail showing it as fact it's not fact. I believe it is and I you do too, but the problem we have no one digging to confirm and then what next? Workers lose.

My buddy works in a bank and they spelled it out loud that the return-to-office was in fact because of real estate, and making sure that the restaurants and business located in the same building had customers. He was admittedly pretty pissed. Makes you realize the futility of it all, all those useless jobs and useless commute. Do society really needs us to work, or are we used as pawns to pay for parking, over-priced coffee and to inflate commercial real estate value. Back to my buddy, he vowed to never ever buy anything in that building again lol.
