Ohio Coal Businessman Prays to Employees Then Lays Off 156 11/10/12 156 jobs were lost thanks to the re-election of President Obama. From Dayton Daily News: A coal producer owned by a longtime critic of President Barack Obama’s energy policies will lay off nearly 160 workers at Illinois and Utah mines, blaming the freshly re-elected president for a “war on coal.” Ohio-based Murray Energy Corp. said in a statement supplied Friday to The Associated Press that it would give pink slips to 102 workers at its West Ridge Mine in Utah and 54 at its underground mine in the southern Illinois town of Galatia. Both mines are run by Murray Energy subsidiaries. “The American people have made their choice,” Murray, a day after the election, told about 50 employees during a prayer, a text of which was provided to the AP by the company. Lamenting the country’s direction and insisting “the takers outvoted the producers,” Murray asked for God’s forgiveness “for the decisions that we are now forced to make to preserve the very existence of any of the enterprises that you have helped us build.” Murray’s statement Friday, which insisted that the coal industry “is being destroyed,” said U.S. coal production this year could plunge by hundreds of millions of tons, and that the Obama administration’s energy policies will lead to the closure of scores of U.S. coal-fired power plants by 2014.
