Yeah, essentially stop hiring ordinary skill in high cost locations. Why would you? Why would you pay $200K to someone in San Francisco for work that can be done for $100K in Alabama? Unless the person in San Francisco is higher skill, in which case they will be hired at a higher level/comp package, which has nothing to do with geography.
Pay adjusted to location is an unearned bonus for people living in expensive areas. People arguing for non-location-adjusted comp want wages to race to the bottom, allowing the people living in the poorest areas to earn that money, which makes sense from a social justice point of view but is going to really suck for the people who have gotten used to earning $200K entry level in San Francisco.
