I wonder what long term effects there will be with having more remote workers? There are many positive side effects such as more time now that people dont have to commute, cleaner air, happier individuals, fewer automobiles on the road. But, at the same time, will there be more urban sprawl? More alcoholism since its easier to drink at home? More loneliness or feeling less connected to your coworkers? It'll be interesting to see how things play out. Maybe there's only a small temporary change and things go back to the way they were once this is all forgotten.
