plenty of jobs cleaning up oil spills.No. The Keystone pipeline has been completed since Obama was in office. The DAP (Dakota Access Pipeline) is only a shortcut, going over one the the largest aquifers in the US. Because we can't clean up an oil spill 1500ft deep, in water that supplies millions of people, their livestock and massive wheat, corn and other fields.
It doesn't provide anything more than a handful permanent jobs. Almost all of the jobs are temporary pipeline jobs. Not new jobs, because pipeliners go from job to job on a regular basis. And Port Author isn't building new refineries just for this pipeline. They already have enough refining capacity to handle what's coming down the Keystone.
This is just BS propaganda the right, owned by oil lobbyist, are putting out. Chinese oil lobbyist because most of the oil that would come through the DAP is Chinese owned.
The permanent jobs propaganda are Chinese and Canadian. Not American.
PS. I agree with almost every else in your list.
