Of course if someone can work effectively remotely they should be paid.  What I said is that the people in govt making decisions that have caused tens of millions of people to lose their jobs never seem to be negatively impacted by those decisions.  And again, there are a large number of govt employees that like many in the private sector, cannot do their job remotely.  And yet they are still being paid. A waitress can't do their job remotely and the person at the window at the DMV can't do their job remotely either.....only one of them is unemployed.  As for teachers, if they refuse to work they shouldn't be paid.  And all the support staff to keep the schools open and manage the day to day operations because of the presence of students should likewise lose their jobs like they would in the private life sector......but they won't and they never do.  That is my point.
