I think you may be reading too much into pro or con “capitalism” here. I am generally pro capitalist (to a point) but any also pro WFH (in many situations) and don’t see any conflict. It is a complex socio-economic issue and there are benefits and downsides to both office work and WFH. Some businesses oppose WFH but others are embracing it. A lot are experimenting with many trying a hybrid approach of intermittent office work with WFH on other days. Some employees love WFH and would do it all the time but others find something missing or inconvenient about it and would rather work at the office or be able to have a choice about the mix between those options. Whether you get more local engagement of those employees around their home may depend on the neighborhood they live in. Some may get a local convenience store but others may just drive to the closest Safeway.
