When President Obama announced he was killing the Keystone XL pipeline, he said he was agreeing with the State Departmentâs assessment that the pipeline from Canada âwould not serve the national interests of the United States.â The fact is that it would not have benefitted the personal financial interests of friend and economic mentor, Warren Buffett, who can rest assured that oil from Canada and the nearby Bakken formation in North Dakota will continue to be transported by a railroad he owns. As Investorâs Business Daily noted in a 2011 editorial:
Killing the Keystone XL pipeline may help one of the world's richest men get richer. North Dakota's booming oil fields will now grow more dependent on a railroad the president's economic guru just boughtâ¦.

How much is a share of Berkshire-Hathaway going for these days anyway? Something like 250,000 dollars?
Maybe this will help him pay that billion dollars in back taxes he owes.
HA! Riiiiiiiiiight.
