We are not remotely close to teaching everyone to code. Only about 5% of high schools teach AP computer science. http://www.exploringcs.org/resources/cs-statistics http://www.exploringcs.org/resources/cs-statistics 20 times as many students take the US History exam. And you probably have to be even better than top-1-percent to get a job as a historian. I'm not saying that everyone should turn into a software engineer, I just think programming is a very relevant subject to the modern world, and a curriculum in which everyone took computer science classes would be superior to the status quo curriculum.
