It Costs Too Much To Make Record Coal Profits!
#3
RE: It Costs Too Much To Make Record Coal Profits!
Min's right, Rand Paul is a fucking scumbag. Also, I wonder which party coal miners generally vote for.

One of the comments made me chuckle, it's right out of A Modest Proposal:

Quote:I really get his point on keeping out regulation­s to keep coal costs down. If we would reinstitut­e child labor, we could pay them less and we could have them work in far smaller tunnels with teensy equipment that would also be less costly. And since they're young, it would probably take them quite a while to exhibit the full gamet of adverse health effects, hence a longer-las­ting labor force. We would also save money on public schools as they could be shut down entirely, and we could eliminate that annoying tax loophole for child care as all children would be occupied with gainful employment­. I admire Mr. Paul immensely, but I have to wonder why he always stops short of a full cost-cutti­ng argument.
