But, it's encouraging to see you actually attempting to know what you're talking about and then noting what amounts to your opinion on the subject. Gold star!So it's not bullshit if it's on the internet right? GTFOH. You just cray!
As far as the pipelines, I understand the points of pipeline advocates which you posted, and I understand your opinion that the pipelines are a good deal. I understand that the oil companies want to increase their transport lines in order to increase their revenues and profits as much as possible too; that's business.
I also understand the points of the pipeline objectors: even the newest piping technologies are not leak-risk free and water supply is of extreme importance to some of them (me too), continuing to invest in fossil fuels and temperature-increasing tar sand burning deters investment in renewable and clean energy (renewable energy which brings long term job and environmental advantages), fixing/upgrading the existing infrastructure would increase safety and also increase temporary construction jobs, etc...
