Hillary Clinton Promise: ‘We’re Going to Put a Lot of Coal Miners and Coal Companies Out of Business’
Appearing at a CNN town hall in Columbus, Ohio, on Sunday, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton promised that in her administration, “We’re going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business.”
Clinton’s stark statement was not only an acknowledgement that she plans to continue waging President Obama’s “war on coal,” it was a clear sign she intends to accelerate the destruction of one of the country’s leading energy sector industries.
It may also have an undesirable political effect in Ohio, which was the ninth largest coal producing state in 2013. Ohio is one of five states holding primaries tomorrow. A week ago, Sen. Bernie Sanders defeated Clinton in the Democratic primary held in neighboring Michigan.
Clinton says she has a plan, however, for all those coal miners currently working at those coal companies she will put out of business.
“I’m the only candidate which has a policy about how to bring economic opportunity using clean renewable energy as the key into coal country — because we’re going to put a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business, right, Tim?” she said, smiling at a member of the town hall audience. She added:
>And we’re going to make it clear that we don’t want to forget those people. Those people labored in those mines for generations, losing their health, often losing their lives, to turn on our lights and power our factories. Now, we’ve got to move away from coal and all the other fossil fuels, but I don’t want to move away from the people who did the best they could to produce the energy that we relied on.
In November, Clinton announced a “$30 billion plan to ensure that coal miners and their families get the benefits they’ve earned and respect they deserve, to invest in economic diversification and job creation, and to make coal communities an engine of US economic growth in the 21st century as they have been for generations.”
>Coal is not the only resource mining and power plant communities possess. From Appalachia to the Uinta Basin, coal communities have rich human and cultural capital, diverse natural resources, and enormous economic potential. Clinton will partner with the local entrepreneurs, community leaders, foundations and labor groups working to unleash that potential, making federal investments that help people to find good jobs without having to move and build a strong, diversified economic future.
But as Thomas Lifson as American Thinker points out, “The idea that coal miners in southern Ohio are going to make solar panels is ludicrous.”
“How long did those Solyndra jobs last? They cost taxpayers only about half a billion dollars,” he notes, citing the Obama administration subsidized solar energy panel producer that went bankrupt after receiving hundreds of millions of dollars from the federal government:
>How many of them are willing to wait for highly subsidized jobs in place of well-paying coal mining jobs? It is fashionable for liberals to assume that today’s coal miners are all suffering from black lung disease. What they don’t realize is that strip mines like those in Ohio and Wyoming are capital-intensive affairs paying top wages to skilled operators of expensive machinery. Not for the first time, Hillary is stuck in the past.
Clinton specifically mentioned Ohio in her November plan:
>Clinton will increase funding for technical assistance for entrepreneurs and small businesses in impacted coal communities, through programs like the Innovation Center at Ohio University in Athens.
Increased funding for technical assistance and the promise of solar panel jobs that are highly unlikely to ever materialize, however, may offer little solace to Ohio coal miners whose jobs Hillary Clinton has promised to destroy.

They aren't. Multiculturalism is concentrated in a few cities and that's it. /pol/'s interpretation of the UK is pretty wrong, though its cities are completely fucked.
The ex-mining towns are just full of unemployed alcoholics and drug-abusers. It completely destroyed their prospects, but if you live in one of those areas chances are you only see foreigners on TV.
Saddest thing is most of the UK is becoming like that now. Outside of the big cities, the entirety of Scotland is that. Outside of the occasional town, most of Wales is the same (not count Aberwystwyth, Swansea or Cardiff). In the south of England there are a fair few prosperous towns, but they are shrinking.
The EU makes it essentially impossible for us to manufacture, farm, fish; basically do anything that would allow people outside of cities to prosper. They keep harping on about how the UKs economy is 'service based'; those jobs are all concentred in the cities. It would not be just service based if we didn't have so many fucking restrictions from the cancerous EU.
Saddest thing is that I personally know of several Americans who want to start businesses over here in the UK but are finding it incredibly difficult if not impossible because of all the bullshit EU laws. … And then you hear the 'experts' on the TV saying that the EU is the only thing keeping us alive economically and that no other country wants anything to do with us.
… The other hilarious thing I've in regards to our 'political clout' is that the pro-EU people insist that being a part of a bigger union makes us 'more respected' by the world at large; whilst in reality the US, Australia, China and others think we're a bunch of pansies who can't go it alone. Again some of the people I know in the US specifically avoid dealing with the UK because of the EU bullshit.

Natural Gas.
Its a big reason coal is dying off.
Cheaper and more efficient than coal for power plants and utilities in general, widely availible from fracking.
Clean enough the US has now met its Kyoto treaty requirements to little fanfare and with the assistance of some renewables and lots of the energy star initiative.
Basically, coal is losing to a superior product, and people are sour due to the fact many coal towns do not have the necessary interior economics to remain without coal as an anchor.
THis is the natural order of building around mineral explotation, you only last as long as the extraction.

Cleaner energy production methods are available. We just haven't pursued them. The coal mining industry is very dirty, not only for throwing soot and carbon into the atmosphere, but even more so for the destruction of surrounding environment, especially the watersheds downstream from the coal mines. Yes, we need to produce energy, but we need to produce in a manner that is not environment devastating. Coal is (still) dirty.

Oh, but they won't be cheaper. The cost of production may be cheaper, but let's not kid ourselves. We have an endless supply of credit, keynesian consumption initiatives and a Federal Reserve goal of inflation to run to in case of that. Instead, it results in just higher profit margins for corporations. But didn't you know that all you have to do to fix the economy is boost aggregate demand, goy?
What's that?
Prices are skyrocketing because we're giving out credit like candy and conditioning people through MSM to buy things they don't need with money they don't have? Easy, just raise the minimum wage to 15$. Trust me, I have a Ivy League PHD in Economics, I understand this better than you. It will boost consumption, destroy poverty and improve our economy.
What's that?
It's too expensive to have children because everything now is even more expensive, you are loaded to the brim with debt, you can't even find a new job and women have been turned into vapid promiscuous childless consumerist drones to drive down wages? Well tough luck goy. It appears we will have to import 6,000,000 mexicans into your city because this aging workforce is in dire need of young, vibrant rocket scientists and engineers.

I don't think she understands how the grid works. Renewables, specifically solar cannot meet the demand schedule for electricity without massive amounts of storage. Storage of electricity is expensive and inefficient. The coal and natural gas industry provide the ability to rapidly ramp up (and down) production effectively in a way that meets the demand of electricity. You cannot get that out of solar or wind which are sources that rely upon the hour of the day. I'm all for a more diverse energy portfolio, but intentionally targeting an industry and workforce we need to keep the lights on is fucking crazy.

Also;
>Before 2004 or so we burned the best coal in our local plants and sold the crap to other countries
>Now we burn the crap in our own plants and sell the best coal to China
Make no mistake about it this was all by design. We shipped the factories to China and now we're shipping our resources over there to power them. There has been an agenda against the people that live in my area of the country (Appalachia) for as long as I've been alive. Outsiders have destroyed our local economy and now they're buying up everything they can down here.
We're slowly begin pushed off our family farms and out of our small communities to make way for shitskins and niggers. Eventually there won't be any wilderness left down here.
When I was growing up I thought I'd never see the day when my families farm wasn't in the middle of nowhere. I've slowly watched as my neighbors have all be driven out, the forest was chopped down, and now the closest local towns have started to expand and steal the land surrounding them.
When I was a kid we were 5 miles from the nearest city limits and now it sits less than a quarter of a mile from my front door. They've slowly "voted" their way to here, they say we're given a choice but I know for a fact that it doesn't make a difference if you vote or not. I saw an entire community of 20 or so families vote a stern NO to becoming part of the township only to have it pass anyway. They all swear they voted against it so how did the town get enough yes votes? They rigged it of course.
Then once you're in the township your taxes double, especially the land tax. But no worries, the local rich fucks are more than willing to buy that land from you for about half of what it is worth (if that). They're always looking for a new place to stick a fucking wal-mart or dollar general.

Environmentalists are irrational, they want to replace fossil fuels with the least abundant resources available, while adamantly opposing nuclear power and research into fusion and thorium despite nuclear energy being the greenest and most efficient power source available and fusion having incredible potential. Maintaining our geopolitical leverage with domestic energy production is a hell of a lot more important than some stupid trees or the climate getting a few degrees warmer.

It's a good and bad note. On the good side it does bring in jobs to an area where they're sorely needed. The bad side is most of the locals are unqualified to work in that industry.
What ends up happening is you can an influx of liberal outsiders that slowly turn the area into mini-California. Which I've never understood since they claim to be fleeing that shit hole. They do not integrate with the locals and in most cases outright hate the locals. They teach their kids that the hillbillies and rednecks are below them.
The response is always "education!". As if we're too stupid to learn anything. Education is simply unattainable for young folks down here. Their parents can't afford to send them through, they don't get scholarships because all those go to niggers and shitskins, and they can't find a job to put themselves through because all the factories left and the little scraps left over are all occupied by Mexicans.
Case in point: When I was a teenager it was still possible to go out and prime tobacco for a summer and make a decent wage. Now it is impossible because all the positions are filled up with illegal immigrants. You can't keep up with them, they work and impossible pace (basically slavery) for a wage that is impossible to support one person on (much less a family) in the local economy. The illegals don't mind because they're sending most of their money back to Mexico and are just seasonal workers, when it gets cold they go back down south. They don't organize because they get deported if they do, so the wage has actually gone down over the last decade instead of remaining the same or increasing with the cost of living.
Blame the farmers? Can't do that either, the only way they can turn enough profit to continue paying taxes on their land is to hire illegals. You can't put white boys in the fields anymore and expect to make it.
So what's a farm boy to do? Nothing. They become alcoholics or pills heads and if they're lucky maybe pick up a mechanic job. Most end up working at a place like Wal-Mart and doing what they can on the side.
Remember, this is the part of the country where you're taught from a young age never to accept a hand out. A lot of these people would rather die than go on welfare. Many do eventually end up on it simply because they don't have any other choice, the ones that do usually have kids and that's the only thing that causes them to swallow their pride long enough to go through the process.
Don't even get me started on the section 8 housing going up all over the damn place. Those liberal portions of the state ship their niggers out ASAP. They buy up an old farm, put some shitty apartments on it then fill it up with their pets which go on to vote in local elections and eventually drive out the locals that are left.
I'm not leaving this farm though. I did once and came back to take care of my family. I'll go down shooting if it ever comes to that. I'm not going to see the farm my great grandfather struggled his whole life for be sold off so niggers can live on it. My family shot at the feds for generations (prohibition/the 1930s, they did what they had to) but eventually times weren't so hard and we made good money on tobacco. I'm convinced that before I die I'll probably have to shoot at them too.
Before I get called an alphabet let me say this: I don't advocate violence and I think pulling a Roof is bad for us because of the media spinning things but I'm not going to be run out of my home because the Feds come to steal it. I've got enough ammunition and guns to defend the homestead and I intend to do just that if I'm ever pushed. Not that it matters, they could just blow me the fuck away with a drone if they took a notion. They already fly training missions over our property all of the time.

5 million of the 6 million Mexicans refuse to work and are on benefits? Looks like we'll need to import 20 million muslims to make up the difference.

I think that it might be a ploy by home developers to buy the land and then sell the mineral rights to gas developers at top dollar. But that's not how it works in this day and age. There's going to be a solar farm that is supposed to power 40,000 homes in the shadow of a nuclear power plant. I give the community 5 years before it is abandoned, but unable to be developed for gas due to a few homeowners refusing to leave.

Do you really think that Europe and America doesn't have any lithium deposits that it needs to import from other countries? I checked and lithium is usually extracted from mineral oil which is a byproduct of petroleum. Therefore Canadian American, Australian and Russian oil deposits should also contain lithium.

Colonialism was good for Europe but their main drive behind Colonialism was to obtain great farmland. That's why The brits created colonies in modern day America, Canada, and Australia.
Now farmland thou still valuable is not seen as a priority and it reflects the economic shift.
Colonialism has some drawbacks and nationalism comes and fixes those drawbacks.
OP is right, regarding the white male population. Closing American coal mines doesn't mean that America becomes coal free. It can't. It only means that white Americans will lose their jobs, destroy their industry all so coal companies can mine in poorer countries were the labor is cheaper, but charge more.
Everyone wins except for the blue collar white man.
I think Europe has enough resources to maintain their consumption, and they have the best men to figure out ways to do it.

i don't even know where to start
my ancestors came on the mayflower
we were a proud family, descended from royalty we wuz kangz
we were the first white people to settle these mountains
we fought the wilderness, we fought the indians, we fought the cruel winters.
if you've never spent any extended period of time in the mountains, you can't even begin to imagine how incredible it was that anyone settled them.
we lived here for hundreds of years, farming, hunting, surviving.
eventually the industrial revolution came about and our nation developed an insatiable hunger for coal
the first mines were literal holes in the mountainside, supported by timbers from the local trees
obviously it was incredibly dangerous, but it brought the promise of something more than simple sustenance farming to the people living here.
there was no mining machinery yet, no trains to haul the coal out of the mountains and to the cities, and if there were any roads they were primitive, and very limited.
coal was hauled out on narrow mountain trails by pack-donkey at first
then the railroads came
they penetrated deep into the mountains, and people began to settle wildernesses even deeper and more remote than they had before
the coal industry exploded almost overnight and thousands upon thousands came to our mountains seeking work and opportunity
the coal companies were reasonable to their workers at first
they provided them with housing, shops and a reasonable wage.
then they got greedy
they worked men like slaves, for as little money as they could get away with, in unbearable conditions
even if you weren't killed in a mining accident, your death was almost guaranteed by black lung
people were getting angry
eventually it boiled over into a conflict you will probably never see in any public school history book outside of this area

there was a literal war fought in these mountains
a war you've probably never heard of
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_Wars
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harlan_County_War
it was the workers, up against mercenaries hired by the coal companies
to this day it's difficult to estimate the casualties, but it was very bloody.
the country sank into the great depression, only exacerbating the problem
people were now fighting just to keep from starving
many leaders of the strike were assassinated and murdered rather than killed in open combat
there was no justice
the courts were completely compromised
eventually the army was called in to "settle" the dispute
conditions were improved marginally
we went back to work
eventually the depression and WWII were over, and with the 50s came a wave of prosperity that swept over most of the nation
things did improve here to a degree, but it was still very primitive
almost like a completely different country nestled far in the mountains
the 60s rolled around and once again, conditions and wages began to slump.
by the late 60s large scale strikes were once again at hand (see vid related)
things like mine collapses, explosions, and even black lung were still common in this area even though they had been all but eradicated elsewhere.
wages kept all but the top specialists and highest-level foremen mired in poverty
many people still lived in shacks, or the same houses provided by the companies when the area was first settled.
not everyone could afford to refurbish these old "coal camp houses", and many were in a terrible state of disrepair.
the bloody conflicts of the coal wars were still fresh in the minds of many though, and some were reluctant to bring about another war.
we striked though
we striked long and hard
mercenaries were once again hired by the coal companies to guard the mines and intimidate the local populace.
tensions were high
eventually gunfights broke out
there were assassinations once again
things were spiraling out of control
you couldn't leave your house without a gun
a man from the company met with a worker one night by a train track to talk things out
it's unclear who provoked the incident, or who drew their gun first, but the mine worker ended up with buckshot where his brain used to be.
now people were full on ready for another war
the company was scared
it capitulated and finally there was real negotiations, and a contract was signed with the union.
this brought about the golden age for this area

the 70s and 80s saw a wave of prosperity this region had never known before
in addition to the victories of the unions, the government now seemed legitimately concerned with the well-being of those living here
the army corps of engineers came in, with the mission of improving our quality of life
they built real houses for those still living in shacks.
they made sure everyone had access to running water and plumbing.
they built flood walls and redirected rivers to help with the disastrous flooding that plagued the area.
good roads and highways were built
people were happy
towns were booming and bustling
many people had the burden of poverty their families had carried ever since the area was settled, lifted from their backs.
not all good things seem to last though
eventually the government started to pass regulations on coal
the effect on the coal miners was minor at first, but then the regulations became harsher and harsher
the prosperity sought after for so long slipped out of our grasp
jobs began to dry up
people began to move elsewhere looking for work
and then wal-mart came
you've heard stories of how wal-mart destroys small towns
they're all true
the problem was exponentially compounded by the fact that our main source of jobs was now vanishing into thin air
people turned to drugs
this has a multi-generational effect, because of the fucked up conditions children of drug addicts have to grow up in
our economy was wrecked, and now the social fabric of our communities was being torn apart as well
then obama came along
things got a million times worse
his regulations were so incredibly tough, that large coal companies lost literally 99% of their stock value
there are now hardly any jobs at all
the great recession rolled in, kicking us while we were down
the drug problem exploded like nothing you can begin to imagine
almost every small business has had to close by now.
as >>5431975 said, people would have rather died than go on welfare, but now they have no choice
the degeneracy of the world outside the mountains began to seep in slowly
most people have resisted, but the young generation has proven vulnerable
there is a push for acceptance of gays
race mixing, something inconceivable mere decades ago, is taking place
aetheism is finding it's way to young people
southern hospitality is vanishing
most people no longer grow their own food
families are drifting apart
people are forgetting things like respect, manners, and dignity
things seemed completely hopeless
then trump came along

people are beginning to understand the true nature of ISIS and our involvement in the middle east
people are turning against the banks
people are turning against the media
people are turning against the government
our deep-seated hatred of niggers has been rekindled by the recent chimpouts
some people are getting off drugs
church attendance is booming
the hope given to people by trump is a reason to live again
god help anyone who tries to hinder his rise to power
a fire has been lit in people's hearts
the same fire that was lit in the strikes and the coal wars
they cannot extinguish this flame
if anything happens to trump, you will have a revolution on your hands

This is what makes it impossible to simply revert to homesteading. There is no fucking reason people shouldn't be able to just do that instead if they need to. Raise all the food and crops they need to survive.
But if you don't pay taxes for the right to stay on your own land that you've had for generations, well I guess you're SoL, goodbye. So wrong.

I forgot to mention. In today's landscape? Even if you get an education it won't matter. Why? Because Institutionalized Racism is very real - it's just that it's anti-white racism and nothing else.

My great-grandfather was a tenant farmer. He used to farm tobacco. My mom tells me that while it was on the drying rack it actually smelled good, and nothing like cigarettes do. Eventually he earned some of the land to keep for himself.

That only makes sense if we're going to start going nuclear. Honestly, killing coal for nuclear would be good for everyone even if you ignore carbon emissions. Coal kills more miners and air-breathers a year than any other energy source BY FAR.
