Why not just pay the price of gas plus maintenance costs then? But I would be for the same wage for commutes because that's time that the individuals don't get back in their life.

Why not just live near your work place and save money and time yourself instead of making it your employers problem that you have a long commute.

Don't get me wrong, I understand the appeal of getting paid more for any reason. I just don't think that it's going to go down well in a workplace where some people would be getting paid substantially more for no other reason than they've chosen a job that's far from where they live.

It's not getting paid more it's the employer funding the employees' commutes.

I mean, that is kind of what a paycheck is for. . .
