Con-flict Of Interest

So, what say you conservatives?

You think this is OK? (oh yeah, he's "technically" been off the board for 2 years - but you honestly think he's playing fair?)

C'mon.....

“David Zatezalo, President Trump’s top official for mining safety, is set to decide over the next two weeks whether to settle a mining-safety lawsuit filed by an industry group that included Zatezalo at the time. The Mine Safety and Health Administration told TYT that MSHA lawyers have cleared Zatezalo to decide the matter.

The lawsuit was filed in March 2013 by the Kentucky Coal Association, opposing the Obama Administration’s use of a mine-safety rule known as POV, or Pattern of Violations. POV accelerates the penalty process for mining companies that repeatedly violate safety rules. Zatezalo, now the assistant secretary of mine health and safety, served on the Kentucky Coal Association board of directors through 2014.

As has been previously reported, through late 2014 Zatezalo was also chairman of Rhino Resource Partners, a mining company which twice ran afoul of POV during his tenure there. Rhino’s current CEO, Rick Boone, served as an executive under Zatezalo, and now sits on the Kentucky Coal Association executive committee.

The lawsuit filed by the Kentucky Coal Association was combined by a judge with other suits challenging the government’s use of the POV rule against repeat offenders. (Zatezalo also sat on the board of the Ohio Coal Association prior to its participation in the lawsuit.) The court has now given MSHA until March 9 to decide whether to settle the suit by rolling back its use of the POV rule.”

If a corporation cuts corners and people suffer, they need to fine And Jail the upper management who allowed it.
The injured parties and their families need to be Well compensated.

If that guy is affected by the ruling, certainly that's a glaring conflict of interest. Anyone who has stocks or related to someone who has stocks shouldn't be making decisions about slapping the company.

As I've been saying from the start... could you imagine the fury from the conservatives if Obama had as many conflicts of interest and rampant nepotism in his administration?

Staggering hypocrisy and the dumb-a$$ democrats just let it slide....
