In reply to the discussion: Alabama state officials: We won’t comply with the EPA because God gave us coal [View all]Swede Atlanta
(3,596 posts)28. Alabama is full of idiots....
They generate a lot of revenue from their beaches and resorts along the Gulf Coast.
As sea levels rise those resorts will be underwater. The rising temperatures are going to make Hurricane Katrina events more common.
They are hurting everyone but just like the decision not to expand Medicaid they are hurting their own people. But the voters in Alabama will go and vote the same idiots into office again.
I call it the white trash syndrome....relatively poor, poorly educated whites that believe everything their pastor tells them and do not have the ability to think for themselves and realize they are only hurting themselves.
This will go to court and the federal government will win. Alabama will pay a price for defiance.

God's coal is in the ground. They're digging it out and selling God's work. Shame on them.
