While I share your wishes that more people would learn to program, this quote rubbed me the wrong way: "Also if your job is easy enough to be done by a schoolchild after minimal training, I'm not sure you deserve it." The question is not whether the job can done by a schoolchild with minimal training. The question is: Does your boss think that it can be done by a schoolchild with minimal training? I don't have a solution. I don't want to see a license for programming or anything ridiculous---(although perhaps a license to manage programmers...), but there is a real problem here.
