I understand the need for economic productivity but not when it's based on unsustainable and unhealthy subsidies. This cannot be about economic growth (or decline), it's gotta be about development. Do I feel bad these people will be out of work? Of course. Do I care about the well-being of myself and millions of other people more? You betcha. Money is superficial, I'd like to believe we can't put a price on human life. But don't worry, other coal companies world-wide still have America to fuel their profits.

give me some of that black gold.
