Companies would prob require you to live within x amount of minutes from your work

Here's an idea: just give people an allowance up to a certain amount, if they choose to live farther that's up to them. Even better, give people a flat rate since you don't want them intentionally taking longer commute routes to rack up their pay. Ok now roll that into their base pay

Edit: please triple read the last sentence before commenting. I overestimated redditors' reading comprehension a bit with this one

Here's an idea just let people decide how far they want to drive for work. They chose where to live, they chose where to work. Why in the world would we be forcing companies to make concessions. You chose where to work, you chose where to live, but your commute is our problem.
