Not to mention feeding a furnace down there.

Yep, Joe is the libtards saving grace.

My first thought as well; many miners “call home”. Maybe Joe was thinking “minors” instead and planing to give them “something special” after the rally?

Biden is a place holder.

His job (with the help of the media and fake polls) is to prevent any of the current clowns running for the nomination to get any traction.

His job is to make it until the Democrat Convention where no one will have the required delegates to win.

New Hampshire has no coal reserves and produces no coal. In 2017, no domestically produced coal was delivered to New Hampshire, and in previous years only small amounts of coal were delivered to the state’s electric power sector from U.S. coal-producing states. - US Energy Information Agency

Well stated roadcat. The chances of tech firm hiring an ex-coal miner are right there with one-eyed peopleapplying for Pilot employment. Hell,I was a BI SQL coder and got tossed in 2008 to train an Indian...never gave me another chance

I tend to agree. Sanders actually didn’t do bad when he was running for the nomination against Hillary

Coding is not very lucrative when there is no power for the computer. Coding as a profession seems to only be lucrative for those here on a green card. Somehow, we need more coders, but only want to import them.

Read an interesting article today. A lot of ships are converting to LNG for propulsion, including the Chinese. Due to higher costs with LNG, the Chinese are experimenting with a methanol powered ship. The ship is also a methanol tanker. LNG tankers were the first to use LNG as propulsion, using their boil off, which is still the best for an LNG tanker.

Most methanol is now made with methane but it can also be made from coal and building the methanol plant at the coal mine is the way to do it.

The writer of the article took biden out of context. The audience wasn’t miners. Biden was simply saying rugged, blue collar miners should learn a new trade.

I’d pay to see some tough-as-nails old miner squash Biden’s head like a grape.

They’d lose their House, property, family’s health insurance, and has only Transportation while getting a degree.

And that’s the rosy way to put it.

He made sure Hunter had a million a year to blow on crack and whores.

Not counting the Porsches.
