Appalachians are dying faster than other Americans.

Appalachians are dying faster than other Americans.

The country made gains on those health measures over the next two decades, but progress in Appalachia stalled. Between 2009 and 2013, the infant-mortality rate was 16 percent higher in Appalachia than in the rest of the country. People could expect to live 2.4 years less than their counterparts in the rest of the United States.

====================

Republicans have all this worry and concern about people in Chicago. What about Appalachia?
And who lives in Appalachia?

[Yousaidwhat]

Those who reside in Appalachia are dying more violently than those in Chicago?

All Republicans fault?

Talk about being full of shit.

we know dean was laughing as hard as ryan was....dean hates those people,they are in his big tent.....

It's sad, but those people need to move on. Destroying their mountains by letting machines dig up new coal won't help them any.

Y'all so silly, they're dying from the poor genetics of inbreeding. It's no secret.

All the more reason for them to implore their children to get an education

I uh, think you must be thinking of West Virginia. That doesn't happen around here.

Appalachia is beautiful. They need to sell off the land 100 acres at a time to hunters. We have 65 acres up north and it cost $100k. The house will cost $200k minimum. The toys so far probably $100k. We go out to eat buy bait carrots beats apples for the deer, Walmart. Give Appalachia to private land owners and the poor need to leave.

But why are they so worried about Chicago? Unless they aren't. And are only using people they care nothing about for politics.

By "Move On" progressives mean "DIE".

Fuck you. We're tearing up the land, producing coal, putting people to work..then they're coming to YOUR town and they're going to tell YOU what to do.

Money talks, fuck progressive elitist swine.

"The past month has seen a resurgence of the coal industry that once formed the backbone of the region's economy, and locals credit President Trump's aggressive, pro-energy agenda.

Expand / Contract
In Wise County, Virginia, coal trucks are running again.(Johnny Giles)

Crippled by a slew of factors, from changing times, an emphasis on renewable energy, and the Obama administration's harsh penalties on coal-fired power plants, the area's economy took a devastating hit over the past eight years. Many of the people living in these mountains had nearly given up hope that the area could ever recover.

The smaller communities in this county in southwest Virginia, such as the towns of Appalachia, Pound and St. Paul, were the hardest hit, but the ripple effects were felt far and wide.

Prospects changed nearly overnight. President Trump had promised to do everything he could to lift the coal mining industry. Trump began to make good on his pledge last month when he eliminated the Stream Protection Rule, which had placed layers of regulations on the industry."

Go Trump. Repairing the damage done by Democrats who want Appalachians to die out and their culture destroyed.

Coal mining begins seeing revival as Trump gives industry hope

I hope they do come to my town. They want work after all, don't they? They won't find any by doing primitive 19th century rock breaking. There are robots that do that low-skill labor now.

It saddens me that you're so gung ho about tearing up the land though. Hopefully you and those that think like you will move one soon.

We won't. We didn't move when the brownshirts came, and we won't move when they're escorted out.

Hence the reason they vote republican
