“In South Dakota, home to some of the nations poorest American Indians, tribes are preparing for nonviolent battle with resistance training aimed at TransCanada, the company that wants to develop the 1,700-mile pipeline. “
They are poor for a reason and it ain’t because they lack opportunity.

It is just looney the way they think this one pipeline would change everything if installed.

Historically, last stands haven’t always been kind to them. Except for Yellow Hair, of course.

Another example of why Native Americans got so royally screwed in the past.
Instead of trying to block a pipeline which will benefit EVERYBODY, they should be asking for JOBS that the pipeline will generate.
There is a greater environmental threat from shipping via rail lines than through a pipeline.

lol. 7 billion project? Huh. They will be lucky to do it with 50 billion. I love how government brags about how cheap something is because it is never the case.

Much easier to whine about someone holding you down and do nothing than to get off your behind and be productive!

I would venture to guess what they really want is some payoff to tribal leaders to quiet down. It’s like Hillary ranting against various large corporations until they donate money to her campaign. It’s a racket.

The government isn’t building this. Private industry is. All the government is doing is standing in the way.

It's a private company's project, Trans-Canada's.
And private companies aren't in the business of turning $7 billion projects into $50 billion projects. That's not to say that leftists aren't eager to inflate project costs...

Yup.
The objection to Keystone is based entirely on the fact they have chosen to make it a symbol of ecological destruction, not any damage the pipeline itself might cause.
It’s not a very logical symbol, but I guess a symbol has the meaning you choose to attach to it.
