Skilled jobs aren't that fluid though. Many of the new EV jobs will require very different skills from the jobs they are displacing. I wouldn't assume that laying off a bunch of auto mechanics will fill a bunch of electrical engineer jobs any more than I would expect it to fix a nursing shortage. There are things the govt can do to help that transition though, such as free job training and economic support for laid off workers. I understood the OP's point to be that the govt has a responsibilty to pursue these types of policies, and I totally agree.
