The oil will be sent to China without the pipeline. Thanks to China Joe. Obviously his loyalties are not with the US.

There is a greater chance for more environmental damage, loss of property and life by transporting this oil by train or truck than by pipeline. That being said I have a very big problem with a foreign country or foreign owned business being able to take peoples property by eminent domain for anything. If I were in charge I would stop the pipeline for that reason alone. However if it were my property I would agree to a lease to cross my property at .25 cents for every gallon that the line carried and would require that it be double cased or twice the thickness.

Technically money does grow on trees. Money is made from paper and where do we get paper? Yep, from trees.

Not in the US its not US currency is not printed on paper made of wood pulp.

Who wouldn't want nasty stuff piped across their land to benefit exporters?

Well, not crude, which maybe is not as bad. It's the tar sands.

Well, you were the one that brought up poor people, Fox. What about those poor folks in Kalamazoo? What about our farmers and ranchers? Why are you so heck bent on destroying them?

Yes, Biden is president and I cannot change that However I doubt it will change my lifestyle anywhere near as much as it will yours. This Santa Claus president will probably not think about paying the bill until our children and grandchildren can pay for it. Money really does not grow on trees

Well Biden is President and you can't change it. All you can do is just set back and enjoy the ride.

Gas prices, heating prices and power bills go up to all. The rich can afford it but the poor cannot. When you knowingly vote for someone that says he is going to stop the flow of oil, raise taxes, and keep up anyone that can make it across the border, you are guilty of hurting poor people. Wear it, Elections have consequences and you knew it.

And of course, if completed, our gas prices would skyrocket. More so in the Midwest than the south, but lots of poor folks live in the Midwest you know.

If you stop and think for once you would realize it would have been a lot cheaper to build a oil refinery in Canada then to build a pipeline across America. .

Poor peoplelove socialism. It makes them equal to the rich people. It is rich people who hates socialism. It makes them equal to the poor people. I can see you don't know what socialism is.

The pipe line may have been stopped but that doesn't mean the oil was. It only means more of it will be shipped by truck and rail. I bet Warren Buffet is happy.

Bestill

Most poor folks I know do not want the dirtiest oil in defective pipes flowing through our heartland. Poor people like clean drinking water.

Bestill, your reading comprehension is suffering, do you have memory problems also. All you want to do is attack , attack , attack. How could someone as educated as you profess to be and as compassionate as you profess to be, knowing if you voted for a Socialist president it would hurt poor people go ahead and vote for it not considering the consequences. Elections have consequences and you my friend are part of them.
