Coal miners…

[Rustic]

Pseudocons hate reality.

Coal is here to stay that's reality....just like liberals being against fracking, nuclear, etc.

An all of the above strategy is the best, bleeding hearts do not understand reality… Fact

Yeah. All of the above strategy is the bestest best greatness stuff. We should invest in horses and buggies and cars and wagons and chariots!

So what you're saying we should abandon the innovation of the last hundred plus years because of a bleeding heart?

You are the one rejecting innovation, retard!

Coal is out. Natural gas is in.

Do try to keep up. Adapt or perish.

You are stuck in a horse and buggy mindset, idiot.

Use coal till it's no longer feasible... not doing so is like shooting yourself in the foot

 

[Rustic]

Trump lied to the coal miners. They deserve everything that happens to them for bleeving him.

Of course the coal miners want to keep their jobs, they pay much better and anything else that would replace them.

I'm sure the horse and buggy workers wanted to keep their jobs, too. But they would have been pretty stupid to vote for a politician who promised to save them.

The coal miners deserve whatever happens to them for bleeving Trump.

Well, they are starting to hire again in Wyoming...dig baby dig

 

[Political Junky]

The coal mining jobs are gone. Obsoleted. They are not coming back. Natural gas is replacing coal. Adapt or perish. That's the American way.

Oil, natural gas and coal will always be linked. An all of the above strategy is the best… Fact

Jesus! Just more parroting bullshit from you!

Do you have an original thought in your head?

Coal is being supplanted by natural gas. Fact.

Adapt or perish, rube.

As China leaves America in the dust with developing alternative energy.

But they don't walk their talk...

The Right seems content to allow that to happen in the US.

It's not

 

[Political Junky]

If all forms of alternative energy were used together they would power the country.

 

[Political Junky]

The Raw material to make renewable energy has to be mined and most of it is extremely toxic… fact

What is more toxic than coal?
When automobiles first appeared folks would shout at them, "Get a horse".

The Right could give lessons in hypocrisy.

 

[koshergrl]

Closing down coal mines just resulted in more welfare… fact

Put them to work building infrastucture or working in alternative energy.

**** you. What alternative energy industry has a.workforce.of.230,000? You're a ******* liar. It isn't the job of our government to tell us what jobs we may work at any more than its their job to tell us which resources we are allowed to use. The resources belong to us, and we will use them as we see.fit. Not how flap handed shit heads dictate.

Need to keep on doing their jobs, because without their jobs, coal mining jobs what would they do?

Bring the buggy industry back?

According to Rustic, yes. Because

Coal miners Buggy whip makers need to keep their jobs because that's what they do, and alternative energy horseless buggy jobs do not pay anywhere near what they do. Fact

THAT is exactly how these rubes "think".

Says the person who thinks that most coal mining is not open pit... lol

Post a link to where I said that.

Why do you ALWAYS have to lie?

***** whipped progressives constantly say that coal mining causes black lung... The problem is open pit coal mining causes no such thing Where most coal mining is done...

Who cares? More.people were killed by ******* windmills in the last ten years than coalminers.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

What are government employees supposed to do without their jobs?

Get a real job

And coal miners can't?

Well coal miners get six-figure incomes, two weeks on two weeks off, profit-sharing, many times at least triple pay on holidays... and they are not fleecing the American public like civilian federal government jobs to do.

We should pay them well for producing something that's not needed? Talk about welfare.

We could not exist up here without coal and oil…

There's your problem.

I meant ....more ppl killed by windmills than have been killed mining lol.

I don't think miners have killed lots of people hahaha

Until they perfect alternatives people should not be forced into them…

Were you "forced" into coal? Do you know what fuel provides your power? Do you know what plant produces your power?

No, because it's the only viable source, Powder River coal power plant...

And is Powder River 'perfect'? Where do they dispose of their coal ash? Do they have scrubbers on the stacks? Can they burn high sulfur coal?

How close to the Powder River perfect standard do alternatives have to get?

First of all renewables don't feel all gaps, till then it's best with an all of the above strategy.

Powder river is up to the standards that Wyoming requires… That's all that is needed

So you're willing to overlook all the imperfections of coal, but demanding perfection from alternatives. Is your position thought out, or part of a political agenda?

well exactly speaking is that the alternatives aren't actually viable. Coal is viable.

This is another promise he will have to break because it was a lie to begin with.

Now don't get me wrong trump may sell coal to china for the next 4 years but it's only temporary. No coal miner should expect to get 30 years out of that job.

True, but till then an all of the above strategy is the best. Why try and reinvent the wheel using a square

What Trump Misses About Energy Jobs In America

But solar now accounts for some 260,000 energy jobs in the country, the majority of which are held by installers. That's almost four times the number of coal industry jobs, about 70,000, as of May 2015. And that industry has been on a steady and steep decline over the past 30 years.

Power from big solar projects is about 70 percent cheaper today than it was a decade ago. Wind power has also come down.

The problem for Democrats is where those jobs are created. It's not like the coal jobs that faded in West Virginia and Kentucky were replaced by solar. In fact, those two states rank 45th and 41st in solar jobs per capita

In the Democratic states, clean energy is incentivized. In the Republican ones, it's largely not.

Up here in the northern plains they are tearing down those giant windmills because of their efficiency, turns out it has a diminishing return. The bearings do not hold up…
