I will say that people are not infinitely adjustable or adaptable.
And so if you look at some of the recent narratives, like the warehouse workers do not become nurses, the coal miners do not become coders.
And the college graduates are not all going to become electricians, particularly because 60% of college graduates are women and only 3% of electricians are women.
