He hates gainful employment and less dependence on foreign oil. Fantastic.

I'm not too familiar with the keystone pipeline, why's it such a controversy? Just that we want to avoid oil?

Just saw him this morning on msnbc jabbering away about improved US oil production making dependence on unstable foreign oil decline.He hates gainful employment and less dependence on foreign oil. Fantastic.
Assclown.

That pipeline wouldn't make the slightest dent in our unemployment numbers. Why are infrastructure jobs ridiculed as shovel ready rubbish that disappear after the project is done but people act like this pipeline will spawn magic fairies that will spread out across the continent bestowing employment on all of us like some harry potter bullshit?

Hard to say. Why do you assholes squeal like a stuck pig about the pipeline but cry like little bitches because we won't hire more union road workers?That pipeline wouldn't make the slightest dent in our unemployment numbers.

And of course it would make a dent. It would also make a dent our energy independence.

You realize the jobs that are created to support a pipeline operation? It isn't just the people working on the pipeline. Service industry people make $16 an hour to support the boom right now in North Dakota. I work in oil and gas. It isn't just the project. It is all of the supporting industries.

CSX has rail workers who are facing layoffs due to the slow down in coal. The Pipeline would give these people work.

Dependence on fossil fuels also moves us away from nuclear power, are those jobs not important?

Cool. Get started on getting everyone on board with building nuclear power plants after Fukishima and we will have this conversation again. Until then, I will keep the conversation grounded in reality.

Right. The public is stupid and easily controlled with fear mongering propaganda (.... cough.... )
Nuclear Power sounds scary. That's all a lot of people need. Fuck the fact it is probably our best option and needs to researched and invested in.

Nuclear power is just fine but the public image took a huge hit after Fukishima. People were already iffy after what happened at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl.
So we could sit and have a conversation about an energy source that scares the shit out of people or we could discuss a pipeline that could be realistically built soon if politicians didn't make it an ordeal.

High time to quit being pussies about nuclear energy.

Good question. To be honest I really don't know how this will all shake scientifically or economically and it's probably speculation at this point by ecologists and economists. I will say this though Exxon and Horizon were worse from my perspective because they happened closer to the US.

SMH, neither you nor I are capable of truly grasping how any of these accidents will resonate through all the ecosystems, economic systems, etc. so let's no be foolhardy enough to act like we know the future. However we can grasp that both nuclear energy and fossil fuels, oil and natural gas, have had negative impacts on both the environment and the economy.
