Glad to hear that. I understand that mining is a big thing in WV still, but technology and mining methods have reduced the number of people employed in the industry. WV has to diversify, and manufacturing, also impacted by technology, is a good way to start that diversidiversification.

The loss of mining jobs does not directly effect Jefferson County since zero mining is done in the EP. This part of the state is growing because it has a lot to offer.

Actually it does because the loss of mining jobs affects the state budget which affects Jefferson County.
