Where will Wyoming's displaced fossil fuel workers go?

2. I also wonder why the loss of these jobs gets so much attention.

As to your point about retail, I'd wager a guess that those jobs are held mostly by women. Plus, the oil industry, aside from getting massive gov't subsidies and not paying taxes, also holds incredible power and the media buys into that.

Let's ask gig workers how they feel about people who have a full time well-paying job with many protections in an industry that's both dying and killing the planet loosing said jobs.

I have to say it: All my concern is used up on the million plus retail workers who have lost their jobs suddenly and with very little warning. I don't really care much about the handful of coal workers for whom the writing has been on the wall for a generation that their jobs were becoming obsolete, and who are being supported at every turn.
