The 700 miles of the Alaska Pipeline was built in 3 years start to finish, under conditions markedly worse than the SW border (e.g., -50F temps, months of no sunlight, 90F++ summer days, 3 mountain ranges, etc)

That is an excellent comparison, I'm saving that. Good one. And remember all the caterwaulling over that? In retrospect, hilarious, they were proven WRONG on EVERY point.

How must it be to go through life always wrong? But yet occupy seats of power! Something is wrong with this picture...
