    Idiots all, they should be taken to the nearest asylum and held until they are sane, if that ever happens.

    Clear mining is much safer for the miners than crawling down a hole. If they don't mine coal, they have nothing else to earn a living.

    A much higher percentage of locals around the Massey strip mining mountain top removal have cancer, lung disease, and other permanent disease. The water is poisoned for miles around, heavy metal has completely killed lakes and streams for miles around, blasting releases heavy metals in the form of dust, not to mention the mining tailings they store in damns release into streams.

    We need to stop coal mining to burn coal for electricity. Its insane and unsustainable.

    The miners from that red state are the typical repug ignorant thugs, they can't see past their next paycheck and are completely brainwashed by faux noise.

    I have absolutely no doubt that SS denys global warming as liberal propaganda and the thousand of scientists and thousands of studies, statistical and scientific, that prove burning coal releases billions of tons of CO2 which cause the atmosphere to retain heat, causing unsustainable global climate change.
    No, SS is a tin foil hat coal advocate, because HE Makes money doing it, and his greed overrides all rationality, typical repug.
