clean coal was a myth still losing all of those jobs sad thing is they will still vote republican in Nov

Harlan County, once a thriving hub of industry, is now a shell of its former self. The coal mines that once were the lifeblood of the local economy have shuttered, depriving the communitys dwindling number of young people of any real job prospects On this episode of 'FORGOTTEN GENERATION,' VICEs Lee Adams travels to the Appalachian mountains of Eastern Kentucky to meet with Joe Bart Watts, a 24 year-old, laid off coal worker whose future has been turned upside down by the sharp decline of the industry.

This part really sucks. At 24 years old, he was an adult in 2014. There's literally no way anyone in 2014 believed they could work in a coal mine for their entire life. It's not like he has spent 20 years working in one and learned nothing else, he could have gone with anything and chose the dumbest thing
