EAST CARBON, Carbon County — A Utah coal company owned by a vocal critic of President Barack Obama has laid off 102 miners.

The layoffs at the West Ridge Mine are effective immediately, according to UtahAmerican Energy Inc., a subsidiary of Murray Energy Corp. They were announced in a short statement made public Thursday, two days after Obama won re-election.

I think natural gas is now cheaper than coal. Many coal plants can be converted to burn natural gas easily.

Natural gas used to be 6x the price of coal but its cost has fallen 85% over the past 4 years.
