You may have a (rather long winded :-p) point there, but a white collar worker has a lot more options than a blue collar.

Easier to replace a forklift driver than a coder.

But don't let that make you think, that I don't realise it's also difficult for a white collar. I've been there. I wish I had stayed. I just ask that when. You guys are feeling that pressure, to spare a though as to what tools and such you can do to help us down here.

I believe you're mostly in vociferous agreement. If anything I read GPs posts as a warning that we (software developers) do ourselves a disservice pretending to be superior to other forms of labour.
