John Prine sang about Kentucky strip mining, in which outside companies came, leased, hired, dug, ruined, and left. And despite wishful thinking, those jobs are never coming back.

Oh, my. What a beautiful way to tell the story of a tragedy. Makes me really sorry for the people of Kentucky, and other places where mining has ruined the environment.
