Freedom of location

Most individuals will have much greater freedom of location than today. As organizations become communication networks, information workers could live vast distances from the physical location of their organizations. As I assume the workweek will continue to decline to say 20 hours a week, even blue collar workers will have greater freedom of location. They could work a week of say 60 hours and then have two weeks off. They might commute great distances for the one week and board.
