Remote work will draw NYC salaries down and low wage places up. There will be a national salary for a lot of jobs.

I was at a seminar where companies in low wage areas where complaining they were losing their advantage of low priced workers. The low priced workers demanded higher wages they could get working remote for companies in high cost areas.

You say that as if remote work hasn't been the rule for the past 3 years. This isn't theoretical anymore we've already seen it in action and this didn't happen.

Wages are very sticky. Three years isn't enough time for us to draw conclusions about the medium term future especially since most of those three years were during a very strange economic time.
