SourceWatch? Really? I truly believe that you don't read the junk that you post. Try reading some of the articles before you post them. SourceWatch does not even have the credibility of Wikipedia.

If you can find specific examples where coal mining companies have received subsidies, then post them here. If you find any examples, then my guess is that they are owned by Obama campaign contributors and there are very few such people in the industry. There are good reasons why Obama was trounced in West Virginia in the 2012 election. The federal government is no friend of coal miners. The last administration to treat the industry fairly was Reagan.
