The Keystone pipeline will transfer oil to refineries on the Gulf Coast, providing jobs for people and more tax revenue. The pipeline is a much safer way of moving the oil than the railroads that have had tragic derailments and spills over the past few years. ...The pipeline benefits the public.

I worked in the oil industry 35 years. This pipeline does more than benefit the public. It seals the deal to be able tell OPEC where to stick it in the event of another run up in oil prices.

You can't put a price on Energy Independence in this country. The looney left tree huggers are complicit in this treason as far as I am concerned.

I agree 100%.. and it’s not a publicly owned company that owns the pipeline and it’s not a government project it’s a private company looking to make profits for it’s shareholders just as Trump’s casino(that would employ hundreds of employees and bring in tens of millions worth of tax monies for the local economy was sorely needed) wasn’t a public owned entity

but somehow it’s great to have the Keystone pipeline built using eminent domain against hundreds of private people but Trump is a villain for trying to get the local Atlantic City government to do the same for his casino with one old cantankerous old broad holding up the whole project...

that’s the hypocrisy at the highest level

“....The pipeline benefits the PUBLIC.” (emphasis mine)

That right. It’s not like some rich man taking private property away from a widow for his PRIVATE business.
