No but I don't think I would dig up my back yard for a foreign country either -Mr. Jarhead - Gas prices: Keystone XL will increase gas prices for AmericansEspecially Farmers
Jobs: TransCanadas jobs projections are vastly inflated.
A rupture in the Keystone XL pipeline could cause a BP style oil spill in Americas heartland, over the source of fresh drinking water for 2 million people. NASAs top climate scientist says that fully developing the tar sands in Canada would mean essentially game over for the climate.
Keystone XL is the fuse to North Americas biggest carbon bomb.
Meanwhile - economists state the President's Jobs Bill will create a MINIMUM of 275,000 American jobs rebuilding our cities infrastructure - what is the obvious choice.......
A 1,700 mile toxic tar sands pipeline down the middle of our country and environment? or rebuilding America?
Why dont we ask that question without the spin and with some additional facts.....
What is the obvious choice...
Building a 1700 mile pipeline with certain safeguards in place to minimize damage if there is a spill as we do all the time with all projects creating 20K jobs and eliminatiuon the great depoendency oon oil from our enemies..
or spend a half a trillion dollars that we dont have to rebuild America at a time when we cant afford to rebuild America.
I mean....would you re-do your kitchen if you were in serious debt?
Did you miss the part that Keystone is already shipping to Illinois and Oklahoma?
Or were you too busy googling in another browser to even figure out how to reply with a sane response?
