The Civil Rights Act was signed in 1964. That was only 60 years ago.
There are pictures of Bernie Sanders being arrested while protesting segregation. Bernie isn’t the oldest serving senator, and there are currently serving senators who have received “F” grades on their civil rights voting records, despite claiming to support civil rights.
I think it is entirely accurate to state that America is a bigoted nation.
I’ve seen them in seven States in the US, also on a trip to Canada. I lived in Germany for a while, and used them there - and Austria.

The work-supervision to prevent slackers thing is only part of the problem, and pretty small.
The biggest issue is the huge amount of money these companies pay for real estate, and how much the commercial real estate market means to the overall economy.
All of this is just sabre-rattling in an attempt to return to the pre-covid status quo, while these companies will soon be shedding their corporate office spaces to reduce their operating costs.
