Coal is dying

🧵Coal in the US was mostly dying because of cheap natural gas beginning in the 2000s. Then cheap renewables began to clobber it in the 2010s. It is a filthy power source and horrible emitter of greenhouse gases. There is zero economic justification for this & it will amount to corporate welfare.

"Government shouldn't pick winners and losers" goes out the window when they become one of the losers.
