But that argument, essentially "there's nothing stopping an employer from hiring someone who's extremely far away, if they really want to hire that person and the person is okay with a completely insane commute", doesn't hold water. I mean, it's a truism, and it doesn't prove anything about labor markets.
My ex-gf's uncle lived in Santa Barbara and worked for a Bay Area tech company; he flew to San Francisco in order to physically show up at the office something like 2-3 times a month.
Arrangements like this don't mean anything.
Especially nowadays (with the newest tech and the acceptance of WFH).
I've been doing office work this morning for my Florida corporation from my Quebec office, by your logic that's a single labor market?
