7. Why was Union guy there when the mine wasn't Union?
Who the hell was the woman who said that ridiculous shit?! The reason the Union man was there is because the trapped men are miners and the UMW sticks up for all miners, regardless of whether they are Unionized or not. Sure, it would be nice if it was a Union mine, but it isn't and that's a fact. But that shouldn't prevent a Union rep, who most likely was a miner at one time from sticking up for his mining brothers. That woman who said that is beyond stupid. She also apparently has no compassion.
