    All we care about is the decimation of the U.S coal industry. Let other countries kill themselves if they want to.

    DEAL WITH THAT.
    Because that's what Hillary promised.

    About coal:

    For miners>black lungs. For Mr Peabody> golden toilets.

    Mining coal for sale and burning coal to provide energy are two separate industries. Our mining and sale of coal is doing phenomenally well. Going to natural gas in some regions makes total sense.

    Africa's use of coal doesn't relieve West Virginia of its poverty.

    Agree. Poverty is a common problem in the 21st century. Righties would declare that coal workers should have made better decisions. My point was that I personally don't care what Africa does. It they want to kill themselves, so be it. My concern is that we have to end coal mining in this country.

    "The American middle class is shrinking." k #86
    "The American middle class is shrinking" under Republican party rule. Trump is about as elitist a leader as I can recall in the U.S.
    "It should be obvious to anyone why conservatives and libertarians should be against Trump. He has no grounding in belief. No core philosophy. No morals. No loyalty. No curiosity. No empathy and no understanding. He demands personal loyalty and not loyalty to the nation. His only core belief is in his own superiority to everyone else. His only want is exercise more and more personal power." smb / purveyor of fact 18/03/18

    Actually it isn't but that would be able to read the information already provided you to know better. And of course being educated isn't something you do.

    Union members demanding outrageous salaries forced the company owners to move manufacturing to other countries like China.
