warren buffet is one of the reason they wouldn't let the pipeline go through. BECAUSE he hauls it on the trains which is more dangerous to us and our environment that a pipeline... but according to this bull spreading tool , because he endorsed the corrupted Hillary that make them for the middle and low class.
think about this: how many JOBS was lost because they turned the pipeline away? it would take many to build it for years and then some to maintain it for years and years. Many people became well off by working on the Alaska pipeline. but you all were DENIED THAT because of Hillary, Obama and that Progressive/commie party they belong. don't fall for this crap anymore

You can thank Warren Buffett for many of those exploding oil trains

We’ve
written a lot about the
dangers of shipping
extra–
flammable oil in
flimsy rail cars that are
prone to puncture and explode. Turns out you can blame a fair bit of the problem on billionaire investor Warren Buffett. As the
Sightline Institute’s blog reports, “Arguably, he is the single most important person in the world of oil-by-rail.” More from the post:
Most people don’t realize it, but the tank cars that carry crude oil are not owned by the railroads that run them and are only rarely owned by the shippers who use them. In fact, roughly 80 percent of all the tank cars registered in North America are owned by companies that lease the tank cars to shippers. … These lessors … are the ones ultimately responsible for the fact that that the vast majority of oil trains today are largely composed of older models so riddled with obvious flaws that federal safety investigators have for years urged the entire fleet be retrofitted. …
Not only have they avoided pulling the hazardous DOT-111 tank cars out of service to retrofit them, but they have opposed and delayed meaningful federal regulation at every turn.
ALL of it here:
