Alot of my friends and family work at the coal mines in Kosse, Jewett and Fairfield and they know about it. The mine in Fairfield was scheduled to be closed earlier this year and is still supposed to close, the lawyers are the only thing stopping them.
A hunting buddy works at the facility in Kosse and he told me that they have men bumping in from Mt. Vernon and Mt. Pleasant with 38 years senority. If they have 38 years senority and are laid off the facility is not long for this world.
My cousin buys salvage from coal mines and he told me that they are closing all over in Kentucky, West Virginia, and Virginia. Obama stated that he has plans to put them out of business--it is on record.
