Mining coal is no longer a process where hundreds of miners go underground; today large earth machinery cuts down the trees, removes the soil and the rock until a seam of coal is exposed, then large steam shovels dig the coal and put it into trucks for processing. A dozen men can take down a mountain top in a few months and leave an environmental mess.
In other words, a conservatards wet dream come true.

Nobody wants you there anyway.

Yep, and it exposes the lie Trump told about jobs returning to Appalachia. Not only are miners not working, Trump&Co are working hard (and failing) to make sure miners and their family lose health insurance too.
HRC had a plan to fund training for miners to secure jobs in the 21st Century economy.
Us liberals.who is we?.....i was talking about dean....We don't hate stupid people we hate that there are stupid people thoughwe know dean was laughing as hard as ryan was....dean hates those people,they are in his big tent.....
How do we do that? Be specifickinda like what you and your precious little party do,so how are you any different?..But why are they so worried about Chicago? Unless they aren't. And are only using people they care nothing about for politics.They vote Republican right? Then let Republicans worry about their constituentsAppalachians 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?
"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.

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
How many people are you putting to work? Good numbers now. Not Fox and Breitbart "invented".By "Move On" progressives mean "DIE".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.
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.

"In Pennsylvania, Corsal Coal Company has opened a new mine in Somerset County, which is outside of Pittsburgh. It’s the first new mine in years. Fox News reported that 70 jobs were created with this mine opening, although 400 applications were submitted. George Dethlefsen, the CEO of Corsa Coal, added that they’re selling coal for $150/ton, which is double from what it was a year ago. He said that the loosening of government regulations, along with coal being less stigmatized now that Trump is president also helps."

Nah I don't care enough to. The world won't stop spinning just because a small group of people stake their futures on an industry with little value for human laborers.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.
Go tell them personally.
I'm concerned.Appalachians are dying faster than other Americans.
