Death comes to us all. Life's but a walking shadow | Keystone was and is nothing more than a gimme for the Texas Big Oil Gang of which the first George Bush and Dick Cheney were a part of. As long as a major portion of our fuel was imported the Gulf Coast refineries were in a good position to capitalize on the demand. That coupled with Gulf of Mexico and west Texas & Oklahoma oil. The fact is Bakken oil has realigned the oil business in the US and in the process reduced the market power of the Texas (& southern refineries in general).
Keystone has less to do with our economic security and prosperity than the selfish interest of the fat cats and other low lifes. |
