But nobody is "forcing private industry to maintain obsolete jobs." Not


even Trump is suggesting that. At most he can only offer to take his foot off the industry's neck, or more precisely, lift up on the pressure (since we're never going to say to hell with any environmental concerns).

How do you deal with those folks losing jobs in a dying industry in places like WV, and parts of KY, OH, VA, etc.? That's not an easy answer and I'm not sure sending more GOVCO boondoggles to WV would be near enough. But we could start with stepping off the accelerator pedal a bit.
