This is totally anecdotal, but I was on a jobseeker subreddit for much of this year and among those people there was a pervasive attitude of not accepting anything but full remote work. Lots of complaining about job listings not showing remote, or including a statement about the expectation to return to office work. Seemed like a lot of entitled shut-ins just didn't want to get dressed and go to work.

I'd spoke to the top people at my former employer and related that there will be a large amount of personnel problems moving forward as a result of these fake shutdown games. I think they agreed but didn't want to discuss .

Update....my response to Ark was Oct 11, 2021. My former employer in IL is bringing people back to work on a "hybrid" plan of 50% being in the office and 50% work from home. There are some job classifications that have to be full time so as I stated last Fall, there will be plenty of personnel problems as the drive-by policies are implemented in the Make Believe World.

When they wear out it being Putin's fault, and Trump's fault, and Bush's fault ... it'll all go back all the way to George Washington. It was his fault.

"The interaction between the IRS and the taxman in Puerto Rico is nuanced, requiring some Puerto Ricans to file with the IRS, some with the Puerto Rico Department of Finance, and some with both. Still, Puerto Rico hopes to lure American mainlanders with an income tax of only 4%. Legally avoiding the 37% federal rate and the 13.3% California (or other state) rate sounds pretty good. What’s more, there is no tax on dividends, and no capital gain tax in Puerto Rico."

Move To Puerto Rico, Slash Your Taxes To Zero? Not Exactly

If you move with appreciated stock, bitcoin or other property, and then sell, all the pre-move appreciation is still subject to U.S. tax. To escape tax, you must wait a full ten years after you move.

Yeah, but then you have to live in Puerto Rico.

I'll pay mainland taxes, thanks.

You don't have to ask him, he voted for it for the same reason as all the rest of the dems.

It's the same lie that we have heard since the dems have come into power.

To reply to the OP: It’s the idiots in Congress and that old wind-bag in the WH that are the cause of all of our problems!

Or is it the idiots that vote them in?

Yep! Hold the ones accountable for the actions of those they vote for…
