Biden Puts 8000 Union Members Out of Work

[vantexan]

Why would they be unemployed if they are working on other projects. Like building pipelines carrying US oil to US refineries instead of cheap low quality foreign oil?

You do know that pipelines already run all over the U.S. right?

 

[vantexan]

You obviously know nothing about oil sands.

But the process to remove that oil has been perfected to the point it's profitable. There's a huge amount of it in Alberta and that's the problem for the Left. They don't want a huge new source of oil ultimately making gas cheaper. They want us not using oil/gas at all.

President Biden is protecting American oil jobs by cutting off cheap foreign oil.

Hilarious... tell that to my kid

Cheap gas means cheap oil which makes a lot of US producers unprofitable which leads to lay offs in the US oil sector.

Pretty sure if that pipeline was going through your backyard you would feel different.

Wouldn't bother me a bit. I've got a big back yard

First it's oil sands , most of which are strip mined which is falling out of favor. And don't let them kid you you can never truly 'reclaim strip mined land. The water table's destroyed and the ground is so badly disturbed that full reclamation isn't possible. It's dirty, hard to clean up and burns dirty.

With nat gas $2.70 that shut in oversupply will have a much bigger impact on your kid's job .

Thanks for narrowing it down. Think I'll go prospecting. When do you leave for Texas?

You don't even want to mess with my Ex Marine neighbor who watches my place when I'm gone. I live on a dead end private road. You may get in but you won't get out

Now let's follow the money.
Who profits the most if the Keystone XL Pipeline is NOT Built.
Why none other than Warren Buffett.
The oil that the pipeline would have carried will still be transported to the refineries by railroad.
Who owns the railroads ?

"I don't believe in the Keystone pipeline because of the jobs you'd make building it. You can build anything and create jobs," he said. "I just believe it's a useful pipeline."

Cheap gas means cheap oil which makes a lot of US producers unprofitable which leads to lay offs in the US oil sector.

Forbidding drilling on Federal land also puts American workers out of work. Fracking on those lands means American producers have oil to sell meaning we aren't relying on foreign oil. What Biden did is good for the Middle East and Russia, not American producers or workers. The Canadian oil is part of that mix, and creates refinery jobs in the States.
