This Made My Day

The people, ordinary people, that could be put out of work by this potential bankruptcy are the ones I feel sorry for.  The higher-ups, and the ultimate owners?  Let's let John Prine answer that.

Yeah, it is about time those companies end. Coal-mining has destroyed a lot of Kentucky. :(

If I ever had the money, I'd invest in solar-power. Tis the wave of the future and less harmful to us all!

*HUGS*

Strip-mining leveled mountains, left toxic tailings in what had once been clean rivers, and leveled forests unthinkingly. And even if that had not been the case, the way the coal companies treated their employees was abominable.
