• A Deutsche Bank survey found more than half of workers wanted to continue working from home for the 2-3 days a week after the pandemic.
• A 5% tax rate on those days on the average salary of a remote worker could raise $48 billion a year in the U.S., £6.9 billion in the U.K. and 15.9 billion euros in Germany.
• This would cover the costs of grants for people who can’t work from home and are on lower incomes.

Nothing wrong in.... Mimimum wage workers has to still go to job are infact still contributing to the economy. WFH valla revenue bokka without taxes on Gas, tolls etc. All salaried jobs are paid according to cost of living in that particular area which includes commuting. Companies might chose to reduce that 5% in base salary in future since temployees dont require to commute. Paying 5% as tax is atleast it is useful to the country.

Dont compare it to top 1%, they has to pay this 5% tax if they have to WFH too.
