Mitch, The Coal Era is History, and Except for the “Bone Picker” Companies whose output is running Electric Power Plants using Coal instead of Gas or Nuclear, and Chemical Plants it’s day is gone! You are Waiting for Godot!
@RadishYet you are OK when Harry Reid wouldn’t bring any bills up for a vote or Dems did the same thing to a Republican President regarding SCOTUS. Fake outrage at its best.
@mikefive – actually it isn’t a bust but you are correct. The coal miners were already on the ropes because natural gas made it so much more affordable to create electricity. The EPA just put the final nail in their coffin. Even if the EPA goes away Coal is still to expensive here in the US compared to other natural resources.
Yep, we can’t regulate the coal industry. It’s run by such good, decent people. Looky here.[]http://abcnews.go.com/Blotter/west-virginia-mine-disaster-repeated-safety-violations-red/story?id=10301990[]http://www.npr.org/2014/11/12/363058646/coal-mines-keep-operating-despite-injuries-violations-and-millions-in-fines[]
