But gun grabber Manchin still thrives. Now Justice too? Mountaineers just can’t elect small govt freedom lovers. How much coal union cash support planned parenthood?,
If WV could free enterprise coal, they would be uber wealthy, instead of letting the union hacks take their money and negotiate deals for the global trade of coal. Imagine that amount of wealth for WV.

Remember the days of "saved and created" and "shovel ready" jobs? We put up with that bull sh*t for 8 years!

President Trump has been actually saving and creating jobs since he was a candidate. It is truly amazing and our country is very fortunate.

>>> 1. Support activities for mining.

Just to note. Most of those jobs are in oilfield services as a result of increaaed deilling activity in the Permian Basin in Texas. Coal mining jobs are up a few hundred on a base of about 50,000.

So it appears that while the headline looks good the nuts and bolts don’t really hold as much good news.

The fact that TOTAL employment in the manufacturing subset touted as one of the fastest growing is under 300k means there are never going to be a significant number of jobs in the that subset so being fast growing isn’t really anything to get excited about.

1. Support activities for mining..and for natural gas, oil, fracking, pipelines and raw materials for the chemical industry

Just an unexpected result of Trump's energy policy.
