@wturner0018 oh its socialism to want clean air and water.

god you conservitives seem to use that as a crutch

anyone who disagrees with you is a comuinist or a socialist

if i talk about somthing they say thats socialist

socilism is not comunism.

comunism doesnt work.

socialism is any idea that benifits the public.

public schools are a socialist idea. todays society has a mixture of free market capitalism and democracy but socialist ideas are an integral part of that

im sorry your so ignorant.

@wturner0018 i want to be an engineer and im against this.

i care about my future very much as do you i am sure. but the fact remains you dont have to go to school were the only job you can get is a non renewable resource company.

although i have to say i am considering switching to enviromental law or somthing were i could advocate for justice for the people living in the shadow of these horrible mtr mines.

@FluxRostrum Coal rules

@wturner0018 you're a student... so your future still has time to change into something renewable. If you want a future, that gives the rest of the planet a future.. study something sustainable CAUSE BY THE TIME YOU GRADUATE HOPEFULLY THERE WON"T BE ANY MORE COAL JOBS. that will really suck for you. learn something else please, I do want you to have a job.

[wturner0018]

@FluxRostrum I care about my future thats why I am arguing with you. I am a mining engineering student and want to continue my work in coal.

[FluxRostrum]

@wturner0018 no. you just said that 10-15 loggers log, THEN 10-15 something does their part, THEN 10-15 something else does their part so on until the mountain is gone. by your own admission you're getting 10-15 jobs AT A TIME for a few years. WIND gives more jobs Forever. case closed fuck off you're militantly ignorant and impossible to discuss shit with. think what you want. I don't don't care about your future because You don't care about your future.

@FluxRostrum

The mountain is private land you moron its not yours its not mine. Jobs are important regardless of what you socialist think. The jobs are full time 60 hours a week jobs. Where do you work? Your like a virus living off of other people sucking the life out of America

[FluxRostrum]

@wturner0018 so your saying the mountain is worth ... a 100 part time jobs over the course of a couple years?

@colossalist

This is a lie, the permitting process alone takes a massive amount of people and jobs. Then these areas have to be surveyed which requires jobs. After that the area has to be logged and cleared of trees which requires jobs. A surface spread then comes in to prep the land which is usually a 15 job crew. Once that is done a blasting crew of about 11 jobs come in. Then the actual production crew of about 15 jobs come in. Don't believe the hippies ask someone who works here.
