If this country cared about the environment or workers' safety, they'd fine companies who make employees work in the office/on site when they could work from home instead.
Problem is most of the folks influencing those that make laws also have huge real estate portfolios of commercial real estate.
Imagine how many people die every year commuting to jobs they could have done from home
If the commute was included in workplace deaths and injuries, I wonder where it would rank with OSHA's statistics
