Why the /s? They're not being sarcastic and you're just quoting them.
How many days do you think it will take until he calls for unions to be declared illegal?
He is already arguing the NLRB is unconstitutional.
Depends how much Musks's companies try to unionize.
But there's literally no reason to end that if staying home still gets work done
Office real estate.

This has had an understandable impact on office values, which fell considerably and remain below 2019. The author believes these valuations will remain below those levels for the next decade.
Simulations of office values, that took into account remote work rates, show that the value of all NYC office properties dropped by more than 40% in 2020. Predictions for 10 years after the shift to working from home suggest that office values in 2029 will remain an average of 39% lower than they were in 2019.
It doesn't give the same feeling of power to the people in charge if they don't see the ~~drones~~ workers sweat.
Yup. It's all about that sense of control. That's what they're paying for. I saw a quote from a survey of execuitives: "I don't know if my employees are walking their dogs for 4 hours per day when they're working from home, but I know they can't walk their dog when they're in the office".
Keep in mind, business execuitives are known to believe shit like, "when I go to the gym, that's work, because I need to be healthy for the business".
They believe they own us. They believe they deserve to.

You got to love this. The Pentagon just failed its 7th audit in a row. It has a budget of $1tr. And yet the cost savings team decides that penny pinching by making life harder for workers is where the real savings are to be found. Not the giant black hole of finance which is the military industrial complex.
How is working in the office saving the pentagon money?
Noooo shhhhh, we're not supposed to talk about HOW THE PENTAGON HAS NEVER PASSED AN AUDIT. We're supposed to be talking about the border, come on people, get it together.
Lol, how fast would he get merked for suggesting we cut Pentagon budget
You've gotta look at it from the perspective of a poor multibillionaire who desperately needs to buy his fifth superyatch so he can work his five CEO jobs remotely
I contract for uscis. It's fully distributed, there's no way to enforce this without crippling the agency. So it would hobble the mass deportation plan. Very curious how this might turn out
Since they're both just mouthing off about things they have zero understanding of, based on an over-inflated sense of their own knowledge and competence, this will probably turn out about like most things Trump has tried to do. It'll either go nowhere and they'll just stop speaking of it, or they'll try to force something through and make a mess that someone else will have to clean up.
Plus trump said their report will be due on July 4, 2026. How much cutting can they actually due before his term ends? Will they even start mass firing before mid terms?
So they'll be coming in every day to their offices in Washington right?
...right?
It's interesting they have multiple offices. Offices they're already not in. If there was a time for a general strike it is forever ago.
Get a government job they said, it’s super safe and secure they said.
