Sure, but dont sell out communities by shipping factories to Mexico and China and tell me its “free trade”. Or shutting down mines and forestry and then import coal and lumber. This has been an argument for decades and led to the opiate crisis. And plz do not give me the same “buggy whip” phrase that non-thinking libertarians do.
“Let them write code.”...
Perfect!
I learned to write software over fifty years ago; and, I am a "software engineer" rather than a coder. Coders script HTML or fill out medical billings. It is degrading to see how professionals in the field lack precision in nomenclature.
(Just a pet peeve of mine)

By the way, there's a lot more to being a programmer than just "learning to code". :)
well, i SUPPOSE it’s possible that those hundreds of thousands of displaced coal miners could always learn to code ... learn to write code for the aerospace industry, the medical industry, and other non-critical industries not terribly sensitive to a few software bugs here and there by novice coders with zero education in physics, aerodynamics, biomechanics, organic chemistry, molecular biology, etc. ... NAAAAAAAAAAAA
Learn to code?? Seriously? So they can have a job that gets offshored or replaced by an H1-B that you Democrat slime (with help from the Republican quislings) import from India?
Your comment was my first thot...
There was an article posted this week about THOUSANDS of AT&T workers having to retrain their H-1B Visa replacements.

Or miners had better learn Hindi and plan on traveling to Bangalore ;(
We use coal in regulated scrubbed means. Go after the Chicoms if you have a problem with coal air pollution.
What an ass.
He’s such an @ss. Truly.
“Let them eat cake!” Tone deaf and disconnected.
Biden’s campaign slogan should be “Biden 2020? C’mon man!” Because c’mon Dems, even you can do better than Joe Biden.
They say he’s front runner. I suppose that was true of Howard Dean, once. Winning the nomination, I’ll believe it if it happens.
Modern day version of "Let them eat cake" attributed to Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France during the French Revolution, when told that the peasants didn't have bread to eat.
Joe's managed to stick his foot in his mouth again.
According to Dave Weigel of the Washington Post...
Tons of leftist journalists announced they were laid off on Twitter and the top meme was telling them to "learn to code" -- which is the same advice the media gave middle Americans whose jobs are being taken in traditional industries.
There are already enough full-stack developers.
“Sooo you’re going to retrain them to code? Good luck.”
Yeah, starting with refresher courses in algebra, trig, calculus etc.
Pretty insulting to programmers as well as coal miners.
Democrat, Joe Biden is as dumb as a person can become!!! This nutcase dude, Biden belongs in not only an insane nuthouse, but in a long term meds treatment center. How the Democrat Party could put this wacko, buffoon, up for 2020 POTUS..is the “sick joke” of this century!!!
Democrat Party, dying on the vine, being killed by the inept, hate filled, hands, minds and souls of Pelosi, Schiff, Nadler, Schumer, etc.!!! Case closed!!!
Oh...I forgot, Joe, Trumpie has massive rallies in Miami, Florida, Toledo, Ohio, & Milwaukee, Wisconsin over the next week. He will attract over 100,000 Americans to his rallies. You Democrat, Joe Biden will also attract a massive 75-100 people for your entire gigs in the next week....Hang it up, Biden you’re done...Butt Wipe!!!
Wonder what his FR sign on name is?
I must have missed Apple, Microsoft and Google moving their Headquarters to New Hampshire.
