And who are you that is so wise in the ways of science?
Shit man, just click the link and it will tell you this is coking coal. It's not like it's breaking news that Barbour County has met coal reserves, some of the highest quality in the world at that.
Fun science time: Do you know why the coal in the far eastern stretch of the Appalachian coal field is of higher quality that the coal just to the west?
Well, I guess you think that county represents the nation, like you did that house selling on your block proved there was no recession.
You think your business and the ethnicity of Wayne represents the nation.
I am happy for the folks in Barbour County, WV. Good for them. You apparently are not.
Greed ridiculing you, Cheetos, and all his coal mining base. 39th worst annual coal production in last 40 years. maga
So you've never seen The Holy Grail? It was a joke based on you offering up common knowledge as a revelation.
Ah, it just didn't register. It's been damn near 30 years since I watched that.
But we know Trump was not talking about met coal. This is all in that climate change, green energy debate shit.
What's Jeff's explanation for 2018 being the 39th worst annual coal production in last 40 years?
All I can speak for are his companies. Growing like crazy and hiring at everyone one of them. He’s doing something right. A WV guy growing a WV based business. What’s not to love.
1) Destructive to the environment
2) More expensive than other means
3) Putting a band-aid on a gaping wound (more accurately, wounds of different kinds)
4) Temporarily helping those with no skills while avoiding the reality- they will be stuck at this point again in a few years because the area you mentioned (West Virginia) is too dumb to realize that uneducated, unskilled blue collar jobs are not the future for success.
They need jobs to keep the highly educated and exceptionally highly skilled talented individuals to stay in-state, as opposed to having to leave to find jobs. herdman and myself would be perfect examples of this problem.
Personally, I'm of the opinion WV should have diversified it's economy and de-emphasized coal as the end all be all for WV 50-60 years ago; but they didn't and we see the results. That said, we have made our bed and now we have to lie in it.
That's a typical West Virginian attitude to have. "Woe is me, might as well accept our fate."
Continuing to invest in something that lacks public and government support, as well as opposite of where the future is trending, is nothing other than the very few at the very top capitalizing on the foolishness and desperation of those at the bottom.
Dude, I am not in the coal business. Just posting what I hear since coal was the topic. If you have this big of a concern, take it up with the dolts in Charleston. Their the idiots that suck the balls of the coal execs.
Umm, I took it up with you, because you're the guy who said "What's not to love" about it. Well, I told you what's not to love about it, and there is a lot.
Message board rule #3: Don't mock the intelligence of others while butchering basic English in the same sentence.
DAMN, you are right. They're. My bad. And actually, what's not to love about someone having a well paying job that they otherwise wouldn't? Surely no one wishes that person not have a job and is forced to go on the government dole. Wouldn't you agree? Sure, the government and state have training programs available but in WV, you can only train so many to be HVAC repairs guys or electricians - not enough demand for those positions. Yeah, the state sucks economically. But again, those in good ole Charley West love the severance tax.
Also need it to keep those jobs so a great school like Marshall can offer opportunities for ball players from places like New York and elsewhere. Might have been the best opportunity they had. You never know.
Might not be...
