Opinion | Biden’s Keystone Pipeline Kill
On his first day he insults Canada and ends thousands of jobs.www.wsj.com
Oh wait....
What you're saying is that the oil companies wanted this pipeline so that they'd have to hire 8 million more people than they now have and have to pay 8 million more salaries?
Funny, I would have expected that the pipeline would have meant a severe reduction in employees thereby making the pipeline a profitable venture for the oil companies.
I guess those oil companies just care about the common good and not about profits, right?
The pipeline means more oil production, which means more work to increase production, which means more jobs. The company's motive being profit is irrelevant. Motivation is what makes Capitalism, in contrast to Communism, actually work. It is why every Communist or Socialist country inevitably degenerates into a shithole. You sound like a typical leftist thinking the pie never gets bigger and it's only about what share everyone gets.
So you're saying that current production levels are not meeting demand?
That's funny, oil and gas prices are moderately low, indicating that production is meeting demand very well.
Or is it that the Oil companies want to create a glut of oil on the markets to drive the prices down? Somehow that doesn't work in their favor.
Perhaps the Oil companies just want the pipeline so they can reduce costs by cutting jobs...is that so hard to understand?
You should learn a little about economics before you start blathering!
