    Because WV is crumbling to pieces and being held back by their lust for the glory days of coal, when everyone got rich easily. I have two sites there I support and travel there frequently, I see the devistation going on there. Yet the voters keep voting for Republicans who are preventing them from moving forward. Obama tried to create solar panel jobs there, well the entire solar system ecosystem there, the local Republicans convinced the voters to say no to it. Theses were fantastic high paying jobs. I see the people sleeping on the streets, we have a homeless camp just outside of our office in Huntington. So maybe, just maybe, I might have an inkling of an idea of what I’m talking about.

    Do you?

            If the only other thing they brought up was the solar industry, what “everything else” are you talking about? There were two things in what they said, seems like two things have been discussed and now there’s “everything else” out there somewhere.

                Well, my Lemmy client didn’t notify me that you had responded, but it would seem that nothing of value was missed anyhow. Do you want to actually try to explain your point, or were you just here to be an asshole?
