India is receiving bids for commercial coal mines and boosting coal production while the United States is restricted from doing so.

Miningweekly.com, India gets 40 bids for commercial coal mines. Mining weekly. So America can't use coal. America can't mine coal, but India is now surpassed China in production. And nothing against the indemns. I just want us to have a few jobs. And so our companies have moved there where they get cheap energy and coal. And they go, oh, we can't burn it here. It's bad for the environment. India doesn't have scrapers on their coal-fired plants. You look at one of our coal-powered plants or Europe's, I mean, it's a big, complex building with all these tubes.

Coal jobs are not going to come back because coal is not economically viable.

But then secondarily, the idea that coal jobs are going to come back is absurd. They're not. They're not going to come back for the reasons that it's not economically viable. It doesn't matter. Nope. The cost of coal is higher than the cost of other, not as polluting. Sources of energy.
