Republicans Holding 3 Million Transportation Jobs Hostage For 6,000 Temp. Oil Jobs

The pipeline should NOT be approved.

1) It will NOT provide oil to America. Any oil pumped through it wioll be shipped away.

2) We are risking the Ogallala Aquifer which supplies two million Americans with drinking water for the benfit of a CANADIAN company.

3) The jobs it would create are temporary and include such wonderful jobs as Strippers to entertain workers. Personally as the father of three girls I think we can do better.

The Keystone XL pipeline doesnt benefit Americans, therefore it should not be approved.
 
Wingnut spin and personal attacks - with no FACTS as usual. Keep up the good work...

Plenty of facts on this board.

We just get tired of showing them to your ignorant ass.

Which is where your head is parked.

When you want to deal in facts...we will be waiting.

well it's you who keeps posting from these websites with all the frothy fear mongering..

just what the hell do you expect...?
 
good ole thinkprogress whipping up the fear mongering still

The OP link has live supporting links. Plus, I included the State Department report link for the r-e-a-l-l-y mentally disabled. Try "disproving" it with credible sources...
 
For the 100 and one time lefties..federal jobs do not grow the economy. The federal government is not an employment agency. Transportation seems to be working OK so it seems that that I don't have to shell out a percentage of my personal wealth to finance jobs that we don't freaking need.


EVERY job grows the economy. EVERY LAST ONE. It doesnt matter who the employer is. As long as someone is drawing a paycheck and spending money on goods and services, the economy grows.



PERIOD.

The State Department estimates that roughly 6,000 jobs would be created if the Keystone XL is approved, but as few as 20 of them will be permanent.

From the OP link.

U.S. Department of State Report: Report to Congress Concerning the Presidential Permit Application of the Proposed Keystone XL Pipeline

From your link dickweed...

While some reports have suggested there could be over 100,000 direct and indirect jobs created by the pipeline, this inflated number appears to be a misinterpretation of one of the economic analyses prepared on the pipeline.
The state department which has no agenda (if you thought that was serious...you are a moron) does not agree with their number.

How funny.

What if everybody had the same job, which was that of Federal employee, and the only responsibility they had was to spend their money on goods and services.

Would the economy grow (period), dumbass?

As keystone 1 has had 12 spills and Keystone XL is being built using the very same technology, is it fear mongering to expect it to have spills as well?

theres a reason all the pipelines have tried to avoid the aquifer thus far

No, it doesn't.

I"ll tell you what. You hook an alternator up to charge a battery on an electric vehicle. Start the vehicle and then try to run forever on just the alternator and battery that is being charged.

When you are done, explain to Me and the rest of the class why it is that the battery was unable to continue to power the car.

Youre buying into the fallacy that government employee salaries take OUT of the economy.

If that were true, the ONLY economic factor would be government and private industry would be moot.

With as many as 2.9 million new and existing jobs on the line, House Republicans are refusing to pass a transportation reauthorization bill, even after the Senate’s version of the bill overwhelmingly passed through the upper chamber in a 74-22 bipartisan vote.

The deadline for new transportation funding is June 30, and if the calendar flips to July without a compromise, as many as 1.9 million workers could lose their jobs, at least temporarily. The Senate version of the bill, if adapted, would create an additional one million new jobs as well, according to Department of Transportation projections.

So why are House Republicans holding nearly three million jobs hostage? Because they want approval of the controversial Keystone XL pipeline to be included in the bill. This infographic gives a sense of the GOP’s priorities:
