She said very clearly how much she respects the hard work they do. But what she was alluding to was the fact that progressives would worry about the people who will lose their jobs due to the regulations that McCain's legislation would cause. She mentioned retraining for green jobs. Capitalism often places more importance on the bottom line than on the human consequences (think medical insurance), and ignores the plight of the workers affected.
