Our sold-out state government officials would allow strip mining anywhere - unless it's in their own back yard.

"government" their money could buy.

2. Unfortunately, I Believe It |

West Virginia government is nothing but a mockery of the Democratic process. Nothing more than a banana republic dictatorship with puppets for the public view. The real government is the energy companies and their money. They have paid for and own our politicians.

3. "The real government is the energy companies" |

Hasn't changed much since the indians were killed out. Before it was the energy barons it was the salt barons and the slave masters.
