Excellent! This will provide cheap energy, which helps the economy.

And UMW still endorsed Hillary.

On the one hand, the NYT loves electric cars.
On the other hand, the NYT criticizes Trump for seeking more fuel for power plants which generate electricity.

[Steely Tom]

Mr. Trump’s energy promises to those attending a corporate conference contained a fundamentally incompatible concept, as expanding the exploration of natural gas is the surest way to hurt coal production, and vice versa. Since the two fuels compete directly for the same market — the power plants that light American homes — it is effectively impossible to increase production of one without decreasing the other.

Stupid NYT. Think everything is static, a zero-sum game.

Actually, they want everything to be static, because that leads to helplessness and discontent, which leads to unrest, which creates lots of story possibilities for the scribblers of the NYT.

More energy production will decrease the cost of energy, which will lead to the growth of the economy. In a growing economy people spend less time naval gazing and looking for a handout; such people have little need for the NYT.

The NYT belongs to an intellectual movement that believes that inexpensive energy is among the worst things that can happen to the world.

Caution!
That is advanced physics and thermodynamics that liberals cannot grasp. They just plug in their Chevy volt at night...there is nothing beyond their outlet.

Obama promised both times to shut down the mines. Still, the miners’ unions voted for him.

The two fuels compete for a world market - not just an American market.

[freespirit2012]

Apparently the NYT consulted the world’s dumbest man (Paul Krugman) for this article-— to the NYT— google the word “exports”

my son works in the gas fields of SW Pa and WV, one of the few still working, told me everything is on hold pending the election

[LOC1]

Per BTU, coal is generally a cheaper source of energy than gas. On the other hand, gas provides feed for chemical plants. There does not have to be a conflict and historically, there was not. The problem with coal is the environmental restrictions, enacted by edict.

Since the two fuels compete directly for the same market — the power plants that light American homes — it is effectively impossible to increase production of one without decreasing the other.

I've read that statement many times - can't believe a college educated person would make a statement like that. First, they don't consider overseas markets, and second, it assumes no new homes are built.

Meanwhile, in Iowa, they just announced the construction of a thousand more windmills.

We need nuclear. Or as Jimmy Carter would say, nucular.

The bigger story here is that Trump is campaigning in Pittsburgh. I like hearing this news, because I don’t want him to concede Pennsylvania.

NYT uses...lining cat litter boxes, wrapping trash up in it or lining bird cages...

However at 3 dollars, it is a waste and you can use other things which is cheaper....

Reading the NYT is not advised...
