now that the u.s. is shifting to major and gas and coal mines for shutting down one after another i do not expect to find a lively city when i drive into hard i find a ghost of the city where people are stuck in my car turner said in black and white picture their stories and there. have not changed much from those recorded by pushed. research and today are leading me in this journey friends i've gathered or. i'm here really. well with i really don't know what. they go in the back. woods person because i've been in thirty. plus at least two into it.

and drove through there. were. no ma'am. and i was from the syrian troops. but i am proud way from there now it's. like i like appalachian mountain but playbook out of appalachia now even with even . its. very. low grade. walls crying our farmer baldwin. are shallow. i got married when i was sixteen years old and my husband was seventeen years old and that lead me in myriad about six months when he went into the mountains. six

months after that down and i went to court next thing. i had two week old son. lady who lived down the street here on me and. killed. her to know what it really. low. where no. company wanted the pope real it's gorgeous and also the coal ready for the christmas they would in their. supper whole world you put down it was done but that old wallet. killed of it. you know it much. too through the boat that locket one through so it. shielded.

i would say oh. i. see you. i find remnants of the mining history or longer memories of the casualties in the hard labor are alive in the stories told by the young and the like they're not just for the glory of collective struggle and hard work paid off. speaking to the locals in dusty barson saloons you can see that their life was and still is mine mine started their narrative their collective legend and whether played a part where said with pride. or said by the word.

before day i ask for the rose parade rest. in their spot branded a bit of a work first see a racist and shield but they first live like i was six of them at meyers grill. it was work and i got them as my grandpa grandma a six letter. but here you. go. in every lady made home a and at it. he always had peace because you know now with bates the life that you'll say.

you're going through. you won't want to talk you out of the water in the mine and soon you would have to drive through water it would get it over your knees and. the horses would have to pull through the moon and then they would like to bow folders for tracks sometimes when they'd run out of traffic people here named were you know anywhere. there's nothing for him today and there have been all the young pay for the turning to. alcohol. and. if we were some one would have a state and say our government would get interested in this place this party can attack you i think we can. get these young people on. make it but if they

don't their neighbor day. in this say you know their. views. on this are pop. eight point seven downtown weisberg this is johnson brain in sin

arcade until ten o'clock tonight so i'm talking to some of the best music of two thousand and thirteen rendon playing the song but all. use. is holding its all. in one thousand nine hundred i was the first woman to work in this one particular mine and my job was what they called the belt boy and then they started calling me the belt person because i was a female so when i would go underground everybody would be kind of gathered to see this woman coming out of the lines you know and then i remember my face would be all black with the coldest since i was a little bit maine so i would have a handkerchief and i would wipe my face off before i would come out. and so if the

all clear. so that it but the guys are always looking for me to come out because it was just so amazing i guess to them to see a woman working in the mines. it's all true. more and more manalo no. i remember when i was in high school is i love the earth science i love the mountains all of anything he was brock's and my earth science teacher back then said there's going to be eight hundred years of coal and when he said that that's when things were good you know where everybody was working like the guys that

worked in the mines they always had the nice cars like the camero i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in the million years i would see that and it's happened it's happened. we. tried it is what. and it's time to change. things.

for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers available to us but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. you guys i know you are nervous he's a huge startlement and the huge amount of pressure can remap you have to go meet the center of the shuttle with you and we will show you all the great gate the great good you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get going let's go. alone. and i'm really happy to join for the two thousand and thirteen world cup in russia meet the special one. meets just at the rio beyond the team's latest edition to make up a bigger need to look at. the

swarms of them so moving. who was before. much of those who heard the preview. we were going to. move. move. move showed you this new you. looked good. move just like most of these girls who do films are good good. good go to shows look why do you assume you want me to show you stories to go. to start ups to get to meet until it was the middle of the mist they'd steal the good news it's. from stuff's not a chance to just move to mash don't try to stop the president and he's been trying this morning to you.

those who have petitions to go to the store to snoop to come up to me will because that is the cause of the serious approach to the station shouldn't be you should cook door for one who is doing business. i've been saying the numbers mean phone they've matter us of over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime tamping each dish. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade per circuit first jacket and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need

remember a one to one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only boom bust. forman are sitting in a car when the feds get shot in the head. all four different versions of what happened one of them is on the death row there's no way you get it done and there's no possible way because the less do not share around a corner. i

would too for the code is looking for the stroke. of the class struggle still going over the maybe go with the terms of the unions but for instance right now in terms of your bio here tout that you came phatic. and nobody's ever found you go get me one. day you're wasting your time and they've ruined very evil people you know they did thanks to the fame days and they do thanks to the young and the. sick if you noticed in season in the never seeming to. be. all kentucky

county it's hard learned produce the most cold at a time in which most of what powered the united states came from kentucky. today the thirty three active minds in harlan employ less than two thousand. some of deals minds have even been converted into museums were laid off and left with nothing since the ninety's many leave off was for they don't see any other options in the fuel handouts in town unemployed man are the usual customers. will orange county was founded on coal and there's a reason more again it was below the freezing. baby. our encounters was. basically as well hard to get me as dylan co. co there's nothing else here we

don't have the luxury of the cities we don't have factories we don't in the reason why they chose the mountains we don't have the roadways and it's largest city metros and in a way and. i go flip hamburgers at the local madonnas or i go down here peace joy and make pizza. that's not something i'm deals over. these. people want. to do more to get people goes both ways you're so be. very strong and give more for their buys every way home. will. be given. the majesty. of. it when it was featured no. uncle who are good examples here is working to

save these he was trapped in here because. he and i don't know if you're going to be coming out of what i'm doing. if i don't get some rain here and you know they're . going to go fine. there will be nobody here rich or they will be able to feel that so. now when the coal mines i was eighteen years old it was around and i asked works in the coal mines for five years underground until years surface. player to. take. my. thirteen cents an hour plus to it and since the coal mine down in the. tips are very good. there's not as much money in the sand.

for my doing here i just got out of jail one. possession of stolen property. i'm not here. jails jail. has. now ruled. it's. a feature three times a day. it will pay for t.v. . all a step. out all me all those things you. need you leave here with me it's no. good so. when. you know i'm down. this house where i was teenager smith and jones he

screamed this is through the roof is places really oh and the story carried a pistol on us twelve year old enough carried will never see a snow steal therefore all i've learned wayne is. just tell him that we meet. those. so. carried away. from the gun guy here the pawnshop here for the past five years we take everything from you know d.v.d.'s to. boat motors or whatever you. imagine we have some motorcycles most of the mining equipment like i say we would take

a lot of that stuff you would sell a four hundred dollar mining helmet maybe once a week the lights daily but the fact that the mining mines are shut down makes it difficult to sell that stuff because these were so these were being sold to personal miners for their own use they're not in mining anymore course they're not buying it. all of them are very accounting. ever. in the states is tough today it's hard to see any traces have determined past their once made hard in the tories. the county is still mostly dry and once one for a year people used to make moonshine knowledge drugs are the rights. of pain killers prescribed by doctors to treat danger and six miners. now

ask a problem. there's a lot of people here this is a big region or a. nurse said. pretty much anything that makes them feel better and they think makes them feel better. we have a lot of problems with items that are coming in that are stolen. maybe not just from drug users but that is a problem and i say again it's desperation to try to get some money to maintain a habit you know and i think since all this you know all the mining and depression of the mining everything it's caused. a rise in pills. it's the pills or the new alcohol. you're talking about the forty. forty's and fifty's. so in the field. well we made lucia sold. into silver a week because. this will be able to help her as we carry

a resume yourself for valerie. the blackberries will go to order again we get a lift you know. money from their. clothes and some truth for them we're. mostly what would love for in the food was called. lord. so we would go a bit though we would also you can eat. flat. in the beginning and i would only have to say a few out of the last found it towards the end of my early days in our stay here. if found guilty and yeah and maybe before they switched to the ones in jail the. can one of them a feat you know or they hand it to sales an hour away with the jobs around coleman

and. it showed him down all the coal mines if. there was a live to come was. shared a van with people. in power. it's no more. i want the same road so this hundred push tiley walked three decades ago and words from the opening paragraph to his book come to my mind. it was nineteen eighty eight my fifth visit to harlan county i was on the winding road from harlan to have birds driving a borrowed pickup truck when i began to notice the road kill it was a dangerous road with more than its share of adventurous drivers and it was getting dark. i began to think of the many ways in which that was a presence in this life. that any more of their road accidents and of course the

core mind. returning to new york living behind harlan in the endless rain. i tried to put together the pieces sober remotes were to i only got a glimpse off. my own wits wonder where own that energy came from. the energy that lights up the luxury. there was believe his call for his work when i heard it is the little girl's grave. oh oh daddy dear daddy plays golf ball way where you have a good little with. all don't go to them on. madre would. come true. oh oh daddy dear daddy plays

golf ball a. good. lick down south now where they. claim to know all. he was. leaving. town.

he. didn't steal or still be used to the. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. cranking gave americans a lot of new job opportunities i needed to come up here to make some money i

could make twenty five thousand dollars as a teacher or i could make fifty thousand dollars a year truck so i chose to drive truck people rushed to a small town in north dakota was an unemployment rate of zero percent like gold rush is very very similar to a gold rush but this beautiful story ended with pollution and devastation a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here and the slow down too much they lost their jobs that laid off the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. and that's a tough reality to deal with. american sanctions would be damaging but i mean is this just us is a failed business all of us are jews a country like a tissue paper and when it thinks it doesn't need it anymore it just costs the way i think it's very immoral.

you never know what's around the corner never know was in the pub you can walk into that excitement is that knowing that's where the adrenaline rush comes from. and you can easily move on definition and the extremes of all. the violence is a part and it's almost a schizophrenia. where you can do all these things and behave badly. they're going to be full of horse colorful all. those are going to last. on this movie and infirmed their role. in the thought. i would grow older where not really did a poll don't want to get. the meaning in these music at least if you don't

involve these constant involvement. with lawmakers manufacture consent it's interesting to the public will. when the right wing closest to protect themselves. with the financial clear your realm to be the one percent. that's nothing we can all middle of the room signals. from the real news is really. competing like the auto insurance industry why four thousand dollars a year can i be protected against all these medical emergencies that take place in my car therefore we know that the price of having medical insurance or be

a thousand dollars a year. about thirty thousand dollars a year they're overcharging about forty thousand dollars where's that going is going to oligarchs american oligarchs. these headlines this out of russia slams america and its allies over the strikes against syria saying they violated the un charter is also calling for an emergency security council meeting over the aggression. president ordered to strike some response to an alleged chemical attack a week ago struck just hours before experts from the international chemical weapons would you to arrive at the scene of the time. britain's prime minister justifies the attack on syria is limited targeted and effective but the opposition leader denounces the operation saying the bombing wouldn't save lives.
