Will it be a problem? Or will it cause a reevaluation of pay scales for those professions? Might it cause pay to actually rise to an appropriate level for those workers? I don't know, but it sounds like an intriguing idea. I recently read an article linked on Hacker News about a woman who commutes 3 hours each way to work a government job in Los Angeles. She could get the same job in her home town, but it pays half as much, so she does the commute to send her kids to college. It sounds like the job is worth more than she's making at it, but the same job near her home doesn't pay enough to make it worth her while. If it did, likely LA would have to raise the wage for that position.
