Who was more disliked among coal miners

[OSR stands with Israel]

Both Obama and Thatcher were extremely disliked  among coal miners but who was disliked more

[Goldwater]

Presumably this question would depend on whether there are more coal miners in the United States or the United Kingdom.

I'll say Thatcher.

In the UK case, coal was essentially being subsidized by the government and Thatcher directly ordered the closure of mines rather than have the government operate them at a loss.

In the US case, Obama did not personally do anything to hurt the coal mines - he simply declined to use government resources to prop them up. (Even with a severely defanged EPA, coal isn't economical in the present, and to the extent it is, it's the open pit mines out in Wyoming that stand to benefit, not the Appalachian mines that are largely depleted.)

Thatcher killed a patient by taking them off life support.

Obama simply declined to assist a dying patient.

People in Britain were literally cheering in public when Maggie died. I seriously doubt people in West Virginia or Kentucky could be incited to get that animated about Obama's death.
