https://imgur.com/gallery/2TraE I talked to my dad (who used to work for Dow/Union Carbide) about that fire. Most of the poo poo in that warehouse was there because it was too dangerous to burn. A lot of it was used to make Teflon. Like when you would burn it it would make acid. Parkersburg people had like 8 days of that poo poo in their lungs.

Jose posted:what aboutntrump voters too stupid to realise? The headline makes them sound like dumby dumb dumbs, but if you actually read the article there aren't any jobs in the area hiring for what the federal government wants to train these ex-miners to do, so from their standpoint they are acting rationally because it actually is a waste of time. If you want to give these miners shiny new non-polluting jobs then you have to actually give them shiny new non-polluting jobs, not just put them in training while they starve waiting for someone else to eventually decide that there are enough economic incentives to open a tech company in Buttfuck County WV someday, maybe. FDR understood this poo poo. If he wanted to employ people to build dams, he didn't sign everyone up for a dam building training class and then just hope some company would come along before they all starved and say "hey look at all these people who know how to build dams, might as well." If he wanted to employ people to electrify rural areas, he didn't just teach them how to be electricians and hope someone came along and said "oh I guess I'll invest in rural electrification" etc etc

While we're at it, why don't people evacuate during storms? Must be because they are stupid /lazy and not because they have no support network outside of their community or no way to get to faraway relatives/friends.

also those retraining programs ulitmalty would have lead to them still being unemployed because they get out competed by desperate college grads. train them for environmental clean up work instead imo.

Jose posted:what aboutntrump voters too stupid to realise? lol quote:When Mike Sylvester entered a career training center earlier this year in southwestern Pennsylvania, he found more than one hundred federally funded courses covering everything from computer programming to nursing. quote:But Consol also announced in January that it plans to sell its coal holdings to focus on natural gas. And it has commissioned a recruitment agency, GMS Mines and Repair, to find contract laborers for its coal expansion who will be paid about $13 an hour - half the hourly wage of a starting unionized coal worker. The program Sylvester signed up for was set up by GMS.

quote:Greene County Commissioner Zimmerman said he’d like to see a big company like Amazon or Toyota come to southwestern Pennsylvania to build a distribution or manufacturing plant that could employ thousands. They've got a new self-driving-car facility there now... but that's probably a net negative for jobs in the long run.

Everyone living in a dying coal or manufacturing town either moved there for the opportunity at some point, or had an ancestor who did... the industries have been there for 200 years or less, and before that there wasn't anything there. The towns are literally built on the concept of people moving to where the opportunity lies.
