Environment & Energy

This is but one of many comments worth noting about the Trump administration. It shows that they’re not only corrupt but incompetent. The Trumpets are seeking to gin up the use of coal not only by short-changing the state and federal taxpayers who own the mineral rights, but by trying to boost the sales of a commodity that is in reduced demand.

Coal sales are down because of lower demand. People aren’t buying coal because they aren’t using it. Basic economics, not the loony-right’s fantasy of long-haired hippy-dippy tree-hugging “liberals.”


I have come to believe that anyone outside the billionaire class that votes Republican these days is a d__n fool too clueless to defend his or her interests.
