(WaPo) After Obama’s reelection, Robert Murray, CEO of Murray Energy an Ohio based coal company, read a prayer to a group of company staff members: “Lord, please forgive me and anyone with me in Murray Energy Corp for the decisions we are forced to make to preserve the very existence of any of the enterprises you have helped us to build.”
Subsequently, Murray announced layoffs of company employees, citing the Obama Administration’s “War on Coal.”
