In Obama’s mind...the more the better. He gets a hard-on for human suffering.
Ya, I mean it’s not like the world needs coal, no wonder they’re tanking .... /sarcasm
And that was the intention.
Please define "coal country". Which States constitute "coal country"? Why do you consider them part of "coal country"? I would recommend looking up recent coal production statistics to assist you in this effort.
Please identify which Presidential candidate these States supported in 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012.
You may find the results of your research surprising.
In three years coal will be gold.
The “war on coal” is part of of the larger plan to “fundamentally transform America.” That plan is to turn America into a communist state where one party has exclusive and perpetual political power. To do that, the economically independent conservative base of the Republican party must be converted to reliable dependent democrats. A look at the voting patterns of the United States down to the precinct level (a look that democrats like David Axelrod and Valerie Jarrett have taken), shows that the largest concentrations of economically independent conservatives are in the suburbs.
In order to herd them into the cities and make them reliable democrats, suburban living must be destroyed. Suburban living depends on two things: good paying jobs and cheap energy. Take them away, and the suburbs disappear. Every policy of this administration makes sense when you consider it serves the purpose of eliminating the abundance of good paying jobs or cheap energy. The war on coal is one tactic in that larger strategy.
As a larger strategy, the communists rarely come up with something you haven’t seen in their playbook before. American conservatives are Kulaks. The communists are breaking them, and herding them into the Kolkhoz.
That’s from a great album.

Particularly when those humans are citizens of the United States...
That’s ~7600 people to add to the welfare rolls.

I tell them that is what we had before eight tracks...
They just shake their heads and walk away..
Peabody is publicly held. The largest privately owned company in the US is Murray. Murray hasn’t declared bankruptcy yet.
wow..that many huh.
Yes. Next will come the gulags, the killing fields, and the mountains of skulls.
This is just the beginning, they will destroy natural gas next. We must go on the offense.
The media romanticizes Appalachian ‘coal country’...which is fine with me, since they’d be horrified to see the scale of coal mining in Wyoming.
Imagine where they would have us if it were not for the shale oil revolution. That’s why they despise hydraulic fracturing so much.
Wyoming is #1. By almost a factor of 4. The North Antelope Mine and the Black Thunder Mine each produce at least as much coal as the entire state of West Virginia (which is #2, by a factor of 1.5 over #3 Kentucky). 0bama certainly hates Coal Country (all of it); Coal Country voted for McCain and Romney.
