Because of the study done by the Canadian oil company. how? it would would allow the Canadians to sell their oil for a higher price on the world market and stop the discount of oil to midwest states. And the jobs at best would be temporary and may not even go to Americans.
Truth seeker there are 20-30,000 working in port author Texas preparing the refineries there to receive that very oil, as we speak
I know I just left there and without not sure what I would have done the last 2 years
The pipe, the structures, the new flares, etc.., has created at-least that many jobs (some of that stuff did come from over seas, keeps fuel under 5.00 a gallon)
Once the product is allowed to be shipped there, the number of people working at Motiva will double as the size of the refinery has doubled
That work is scheduled for years more before completion, as is the Total refinery. There are others

These are 2 of the biggest
Now those jobs are going to become permanent for some as well as this 4 billion dollar project in Sabine pass, right down the road, to receive oil from over seas and to export the product not used at the local refineries

there has been no less than 50,000 jobs added all ready, these facilities will create 1000s more permanent jobs, maybe 10s of 1000s
Down line who knows how much of this kind of work is going on or is being planned? Planned work is jobs
Material
Equipment
If we would allow the construction of new refineries, this kind of work could be generated from Canada to Texas
So the jobs claim has all ready began, in fact Total is about complete as well as one huge exporting and receiving facility in Sabin Pass
Now as far as the price going up, that product is already being shipped on the open market, just not in the US. It should help our pricing as I have said 2 of the largest refineries in this country have doubled in size to receive this product
