Pipelines don’t derail, and don’t pay bribes to politicians, so we don’t get a pipeline.

I’m no math wizard but as I see it, reducing the number of oil carrying rail cars per train, limiting rail speeds through populated areas plus a host of other issues designed to increase the time it takes to transport crude oil to the refineries only INCREASES the cost to produce gasoline, the same gasoline the usurper in chief wants to cost $8.00/gallon. We definitely NEED that pipeline and if Reagan were around he would say, “Mister President, approve that pipeline”.

Pipelines rupture, causing their contents to leak. This isn't pipeline vs. rail. Capacity and economics are at play here. You should be glad BNSF is taking steps to ensure safer transportation of crude oil.

ND certainly has some oil pipelines, just not enough.
