I think we'll all be affected at the gas pumps. Paid 2.49 this morning in Fla., 1.79 two weeks ago in La.

But heres the thing .The way I understand it the oil has been sold by contract. SO now it will have to be moved by rail cars and big rigs. SO MORE emissions than oil running thru a pipe ??? confused

If they really cared about the environment and safety of the general public they would love pipelines but they don’t. That oil is going to be moved one way or the other or maybe they are so stupid they think the owners of the oil are just going to let it set there.

They want to make it as expensive as possible to make their "Green" energy look better.

Demetria Joe will cost American's a lot of money and his raising taxes will be next.

The Keystone is a big deal for Montana with the tax money that pipeline will bring into our state is huge.

Stands to reason spending a lot of time signing your name when you constantly forget what it is, no? Poor guy probably chewed up half the crayons he had before using them, gotta stumble around looking for more.

Hmmm. How many truck drivers now have an income?
Shipped by rail you say? lots of tracks to maintain.
Who makes those tracks?
Was there a "just passing thru your country tax so we can compete with you on the world wide market tax?
just

No most of the loss is from jobs= income tax on the workers that were going to maintain and repair the pump stations. It isn't gravity flow LOL. Plus I don't think parts of it are done yet. It is my understanding and I haven't research this , but I think part of it was up and running on top of the ground and they are burying it. NOT SURE what work was in progress but it has halted.
Montana Gov said his state lost 1 million a year in taxes and revenue minimal . Jobs equals income equals spending in that area by the workers. I have seen this first hand in counties in Eastern and western Ky. Before the first "green" deal there where workers in the coal mines (deep and strip) that had expensive houses and drove new trucks. All this was purchased local and beefed up these small towns. Now the houses sit run down, mom and pop stores are boarded up . It is awful. Tons of steel mill towns went thru it too. I'm sure lots on here know what I am talking about

We shut everything down while China and Russia move full speed ahead. Good strategy.

So lets take a look at your theory.
The pipeline is 2687 miles long.
That's 14,187,368 feet Divided by the length of a semi trailer 50 feet hats 283,747.2 semi trailers.
Now I don't know how long it takes for oil to get from the first 50 feet to the barge and how many times that happens but you have to agree that's a lot of jobs.
We live just a mile from the rr tracks and I can tell you that a train can pull 1 mile of tankers.
that's a lot of trains too.
So how many pumping stations are there in 2687 miles of pipeline? And how many maintainance workers are assigned to them?
think about that.
