Having lived in Eastern Ky for a few years when younger. They are a proud people and as a whole. Could tell you about local history and events going back generations. Ask them about current world events and get a totally different response.
My guess the majority of the affected were more worried about the day to day struggles surviving. Most need to leave in order to find work. There just is not the local industry base.
I do not fault the average person rather the oil, gas coal operators and the elected representatives for the current climate related issues.
These very people will now be holding out the outstretched hand for funding. Leaving nothing but unfulfilled promises to everyone else. Expecting the rest of the country to foot the bills ahead.
