Are people so hopelessly dense that they don't realize a remote economy means lower wages, massive outsourcing and the obsolescence of cities?
I don't really know why #3 is said like a bad thing, but I wonder about the other two. If this is clearly and advantage that is sure to happen, why hasn't it? There's still time zone issues and cultural bridges to gap, so I don't know how far one can really go before it becomes a lot of effort to be productive. And speaking as a Canadian who makes what appears to be a university grad-level wage in the states, I wouldn't mind it at all if that forced the more local wage to be a little higher to compete.
