yes

That I am very much onboard with. That would be a beneficial use of government for stimulating the free markets to come up with the solutions to the problems with fossil fuel. This is not dissimilar to the idea I posted months ago for the federal and state governments to offer tax incentives to companies that set up employees to work from home that are able to, at least periodically. This would help stimulate the home-based technology sector, decrease medical costs over time due to decreased stress from miserable commutes, decrease fuel consumption and pollution, and give the audit industry a new set of regs/pols/procs to conduct periodic audits of, so that sector would also benefit over time.

good to see that we can agree on something. i dunno about the "home-based" gov't though (first i've heard of it. seems like there could be some merit but it also sounds like the "fat homer" simpson's episode where he has a drinking bird toy running the power plant).

Hypotehtical at this point, but it makes sense that if we start to shift to a workforce that conducts alot of responsibilites from a home office, we would need the means of setting up processing functionality in addition to just laptops and printers, for various types of employment.

Somehow I think you will forget this lesson shortly though.
