RE: The Keystone pipeline has been under review, and has been studied, for over five years now? Exactly what more has to be studied to determine whether to go forward?
Nothing really. I mean if many other pipelines have already existed and are not a danger to the environment, why not Keystone?
It’s the same as hydrofracking in New York State. Neighboring Pennsylvania has been doing it safely for years without problems creating tens of thousands of jobs in PA ( and at the NY border ). But still, Andrew Cuomo has been ordering one study after the other. It’s been going on for more than 5 years here in NY.
The point is really to appease the environmentalist wacko base. That’s all there is to it.
Farmers here in Indiana can’t ship the beans and corn.
All the rail lines are loaded with crude tankers (Warren Buffet profits).
