About Keystone XL

You are the only person that is predicting $20 a gallon gas Dave but I truly hope it happens. If you don't like it you can move.

Edit: And just an FYI, they are either going to send it to Houston instead or they are going to send it to Canada's east cost instead. So either way, get ready for $20 a gallon gas because Canada is going to cut Chicago off. Maybe yall shouldn't have pissed them off.

What Will Life Be Like In the US When Gas Costs $20 Per Gallon?


Christopher Steiner, a staff writer at Forbes whose first book is about how high oil prices are coming and they’re going to cause an economic meltdown, but that’s a good news, because it’ll makes us stop being a nation of fat greedy dipshits.

I am comforted by the fact that not only will I survive but that you won't be able to afford internet access to rape my eyes with your bullshit.

Try and keep up.

I moved so close to work I can ride my bike.

Well, if it pollutes private property and is shielded from having to pay for damages then yes I am. To be fair, I'd have to hear what Dr. Paul has to say about it. I suppose I could and should google about it.

Dr who????

I fail to see how we need the state to give corporations permission to use other peoples' property.

Did you not read the long list of stuff that we wouldn't have without eminent domain? It is in the same post that you replied to.

Try and read your own links. You likely won't have a job at $20/gallon gas and even if you do I doubt you will be able to afford inet access or even a smartphone.

You quoted LegendKiller's response to my Anarchist comment, so your Darwin intent still leaves your comprehension in question.

LMAO!! I am a Republican shill now, being paid by the RNC no less! In another thread just a day ago I was a librul commie.

Dr Who????

No, Dr. Paul. A Texan obstetrician in the United States House of Representatives, not to be confused with a fictitious Time Lord.

 

[cybrsage]

... a fictitious Time Lord.

Wait What?? Ficticious? Next thing we know, you will be saying Snoopy never actually fought the Red Baron.

You just lost all credibility...

About Keystone XL

I heard that Transcanada was going to invade the lands of indigenous (sic) peoples.

Is that true?

If so, then this is just another example of fascism. If not, then I was terribly misinformed.

I really don't favor it though, because I don't see how it couldn't violate private property rights. I heard that it would pollute a lot which means it will pollute private property. If it weren't advocated for by Congress, then I'd be okay with it, but the fact that Congress is advocating for it makes me worried that they won't have to pay private property owners damages if they pollute private property.

This is just getting started:

Obama, Congress begin 2012 in oil pipeline dispute



Russ Girling, TransCanada's president and chief executive, said his company would do whatever is necessary to make sure the project is approved.

Unions are watching closely. Unemployment in construction is far higher than other industries, with more than 1.1 million construction workers jobless, said Brent Bookers, director of construction at the Laborers' International Union of North America.


"For many members of the Laborers, this project is not just a pipeline, it is a lifeline," Bookers said, adding, "Too many hard-working Americans are out of work, and the Keystone XL pipeline will change that dire situation for thousands of them."


Roger Toussaint, international vice president of the Transport Workers Union, opposes the pipeline.


"The dangers of the pipeline are compelling, and no one should believe the claims of either the Republican leadership or the energy companies, with respect to the project being shovel ready or with respect to the number of jobs it's going to produce," he said.

Always nice to see your opponents in disarray fighting among themselves. Union officials against union officials with some opposing the President.

Here's a nice little article about all the jobs and economic prosperity in North Dakota and Montana caused by the Bakken oil fields.
