Coal companies, timber companies, federal govt., Revenuers...you name it, pretty much any outsider that comes in making promises has [bleep] over, stolen and taken advantage of the locals in most of Appalachia. Most of the folks that settled the area fled here from countries where they were being treated the same way, so like I said before, being from this area, we're a little more hypersensitive to any situation where someone is trying to strip us of liberties.
Same thing happening here with oil and gas companies using eminent domain.
