16% of the world's largest economy is hardly "no demand".

From West Virginia to Wyoming, coal country overwhelmingly voted for Donald Trump and his message that he will bring coal jobs back. Now, those same voters are eyeing his incoming administration closely, careful to see if he will keep his promises to revive the coal industry and get miners back to work.

These hopes have become increasingly desperate as the industry has floundered. U.S. coal production in 2016 is projected to be at its lowest level since 1978, and over the past few years, the country has lost about 30,000 coal jobs.

The U.S. is now pumping out a record amount of oil. Yay more jobs right?! Can anyone raise their hand and tell me how many jobs cheap oil creates in the oil industry?

Nice chart. Can you show us one that includes the collapse in oil prices since 2012 that all but destroyed U.S. fracking?

Looks like we are down 16% from the peak in 2014.


Still a shit load of jobs, and plenty of room for that to go back up when prices rise again.

U.S. oil, gas industry sheds 100,000 jobs in slump: Kemp

Tens of thousands more lost since that article was written.

Now tell us how massively increasing the energy supply will raise oil prices?

What was it twenty years ago?

Coal is getting squeezed out of the market

You just posted an article about how prices are too low because demand is too low genius. Leading to over 100,000 jobs lost. Time to tag someone else in. You're barely able to stand.

By the next bi-elections, the coal miners will know that Trump lied to them.

I doubt it.

Trumpkins are very invested in this debacle. All but the most honest will keep up with the idiotic lies blaming the EPA, Obama, yadda yadda.

no matter who is president, coal is at the mercy of market economics. Coal’s No. 1 rival is cheap, cleaner-burning natural gas — which could become an even more potent competitor under the incoming administration. The probable easing of restrictions on pipeline building and loosening of rules on gas exploration and production would mean more natural gas reaching the market.

The blow back in coal country against drumpf will be huge


Donald J. Trump made many important campaign promises on his way to victory. But saving coal is one promise he won't be able to keep.

Coal is by far the cheapest, most abundant, available and easily obtained fuel source. Trump will remove tens of billions in regulations allowing the market to choose which source is used to provide energy.

Nothing. It's the price that is affected.

When the price collapses because of bunch of coal is being mined that nobody wants or needs, what will happen to the coal jobs?

Do you believe that Trump will massively subsidize the coal industry wih federal funding to create unneeded coal jobs?

it will get sent over seas and help

lower our trade deficit

Oh okay. Did you know that India and China are behind overseas demand spikes for coal, and did you know that they absolutely do not need our coal at all because they have massive amounts if their own? But maybe Trump will get lucky and they will elect globalists who want to pay more for our coal.

blah blah blah

you like talkin out your ass

No rebuttal of course. Because you know I'm right.

no because you are full of bs

the iea sees global supply increasing at an average rate of 6% through 2020

Coal is dirty, difficult to transport and not in demand

Tell Trump to ban fracking and he will help the future of coal. But we know where his backing is

So Trump will sacrifice natural gas and oil jobs to bring back jobs for an energy source for which there is currently no demand?

[bodecea]

Why wouldn't he, shithead?

Because there is no demand for coal whatsoever.

Really?

Yeah look at that stagnant U.S. demand. Bringing our jobs back indeed.

The EPA stifled the industry. Democrats should not be allowed to vote.

"Democrats should not be allowed to vote"......see the fascist tone, everyone?

You are all over the place. Coal is a major industry, that lefties like Obama and Hillary wanted to kill for ideological reasons.

THe lefty pretense that the industry is dead or dying is not borne out by the numbers.


IMO, it is likely that a significant portion of the drop is due to government hostility that is now going to be removed.

The drop caused by the gas glut is almost certainly temporary and will be reversed at some point as gas prices rebound.
