I know it's impractical, but the government should have WFH mandates. If your job could reasonably be done from home and the company does not accommodate or allow for that there should be labor laws in place you can challenge them on.

In addition, it will decrease reliance on external oil sources that contribute to sovereign wealth funds that then further ruin our country via things like this.
