That's the alternative to a pipeline, you fucking moron.What difference does that make? Who's talking about it?

A pipeline such as Keystone with 18 foot pipes, there are about 600,000 oil seal under pressure of up to 1500psi. The lifetime of these seals is estimated as 15 years, yet there is no requirement that the operator, TC Energy replace them.Wow, what an idiot you are. Pipes are sealed dumbassa

These are the largest leaks, however it estimated that there are over a thousand unreported leaks between 2010 and 2019 and total number gallons leaked exceeds a million.
October 31, 2019: TransCanada’s (“TC Energy”) Keystone pipeline leaked at least 380,000 gallons of tarsand oil and toxic diluents that affected wetlands in northeastern North Dakota. No cause has yet been established.
November 16, 2017: Keystone pipeline leaks 407,000 gallons on farmland near Amherst, South Dakota. Spill was originally underreported as 210,000 gallons.
The simple fact you ignore is oil seals leak when they are under high pressure for a number of years and metal weakens with corrosion.

Let’s say your post is accurate, wouldn’t another pipe line to have available for updates and fixes?

Not at a cost of over 5 billion dollars. Since most of the pipeline is below ground or water, many leaks are not discovered for days, weeks, and sometimes are never discovered. When a leak is discovered it doesn't usually take so long to fix that a secondary pipeline is needed.Let’s say your post is accurate, wouldn’t another pipe line to have available for updates and fixes?

It’s not tax payer money why do you care?Not at a cost of over 5 billion dollars.

I don't care how much money the oil companies spend as long it's not a serious threat to environment.It’s not tax payer money why do you care?
Such as?I don't care how much money the oil companies spend as long it's not a serious threat to environment.
Global warming is a hoax, so none of it is a threat to the environment. However, axing the pipeline is a threat to the poor and the middle class.I don't care how much money the oil companies spend as long it's not a serious threat to environment.

Idiotic babbling,,,All you proved is that you're an imbecile. The fact that environment imbeciles like you have been blubbering about for 10 years doesn't mean it's a bade idea. More than likely that means it's a good idea. How did that benefit the human race in any fashion?
You should stopIdiotic babbling,,,
That's the alternative to a pipeline, you fucking moron.
Cause what I posted was trueYou fucking moron -- I posted an image of a tar-sands leak from the Keystone pipeline and some idiot falsely claimed that image was of the Exxon Valdez mess.
Are you ever not a fucking moron?
Ever??
It doesn't matter what you posted. That photo has no label on it. It proves nothing.You fucking moron -- I posted an image of a tar-sands leak from the Keystone pipeline and some idiot falsely claimed that image was of the Exxon Valdez mess.

I could be a picture of a lake of oil or a small puddle that contains a single barrel of oil. The foto includes no context. It's worthless horseshit like everything else you post.LOLOLOLOL
Are you ever not a fucking moron?
Ever??
Fucking moron, I posted a link with the photo to an article about that spill.
