I hear their coal is reasonably priced but avoid the one that sells creek coal. I hear lots of complaints about that coal. I suppose it woul dwork if it were cheap enough and you have abig furnace. Wouldnt work for me as my Boiler and burn grate is tiny compared to some and i dont have the option to just turn up the feed and burn twice as much for the same amount of heat. The others sell mined coal.lincolnmania wrote: ↑Sat.

Yea make things even more expensive than they already are. Who votes for these idiots,they must be heating with unicorn stoves cuz all fuels are way up. Besides theres already a tax on coal to pay black lung benefits and mine reclamation costs.Dreamcatcher wrote: ↑Sun.

Dont worry Fred. There will be more IRS agents to make sure you paid enough taxes on it
Looking at that bill I can see one or two good things, the drug prescription stuff. (But I havent seen the fine print on those so maybe not) Maybe the oil pumping stuff is ok too, but the rest mostly sucks. Paying for people to buy electric cars, solar panels, paying the people putting them up including windmills. And those who dont get those products get nothing but higher taxes from it.

It takes that much more effort to fix things because the term "competent" in government has a far lower standard of "competency" then in the general public. The ones "fixing" are not much better than the ones doing the "damage",.... no matter what side they are on.
