Umm, do USMB Republicans understand that the Keystone pipeline will only create 35 permanent jobs?

[BULLDOG]

This sounds far more like one of those "green" windfarm projects that are supposed to create hundreds of jobs but then only create 10. What's wrong deanie, it's OK if it's a windmill that slaughters birds but not if it's a pipeline? You must have stock in Buffets company which is why you don't want the competition.

This MOD makes a good point that it's similar to Wind Farms and a movement.

Sadly the fool is focused on "slaughter birds" and ignores that Oil Refineries can be built closer to Canada instead of making a pipeline through the entire nation. One leak and it will be our water sources that are slaughtered. I mean, ever since oil fracking was exposed for killing people they stopped pumping the water back into the soil causing people to have to import their water supply in some area's, including Texas.

Birds are cool. Humans are better.

Of course refineries could be built closer to Canada, or even in Canada, but that leaves out much of the profit to be had. First off, The land where the bitumen is being mined is owned largely by the Koch brothers, as well as other owners of Gulf Coast refineries. Next, since the first production stop will be in the refineries, they will be able to take advantage of "free trade zones" That's a little known perk for refineries where they can import feed stock directly into the refinery, and export it directly from the refinery to foreign nations, without paying any taxes. The law was set up so they could unload crude ships directly at the refinery, refine it, and ship it right back out without taxes be levied. The same people make money on the mining, refining, and pay no taxes all in one shot. They will make a fortune.

Same as the Fair Tax. They are using small minded Libertarians and Tea Party folk to avoid taxation. They convince the uneducated poor people that they will have a better life if they weren't strapped down by all of that taxation, meanwhile, they are the ones avoiding taxation and driving up taxes in the average home.

CNN s Van Jones says Keystone pipeline only creates 35 permanent jobs PunditFact

Contrary To GOP Promises Keystone XL Pipeline Will Only Create 35 Permanent Jobs

Republicans and conservative Democrats have continuously pushed for this pipeline’s approval is due to the huge windfall it will create for oil companies, specifically the Koch Bros. A report completed last year shows that the Kochs stand to make $100 billion from the passage of the Keystone extension. That’s billion, not million.

Republicans can’t just go to the people and say that we need to make sure insanely rich billionaires need to be given an opportunity to become even more insanely wealthy, environmental impacts be damned. Of course not. Therefore, they need to go out and claim that the project will create tons of jobs, help the country’s economy and fulfill its energy needs. Or, in other words, lie. Lie through their teeth.

Fox News host Keystone pipeline would create tens of thousands of jobs PunditFact

Fox News host: Keystone pipeline would create 'tens of thousands of jobs'

As far as new jobs go, the State Department estimates the operation of the pipeline will only create 35 permanent, full-time jobs and 15 temporary contractors. The full-time workers would be "required for annual operations, including routine inspections, maintenance and repair." Some would work in a Nebraska field office.

The lack of many full-time positions makes sense, given that the project is to build a pipeline so that tar sands can travel without the need of rail cars or ships.


Puts a lot of welders and inspectors to work for a while, as well as other techs. Even if those jobs are temporary, people get training and job experience,
the local economy is boosted.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, there you have it. Maybe we are "misunderestimating" Republicans. Maybe they mean 35 permanent jobs and tens of thousands of jobs cleaning up the fucking mess.

Another huge GOP disaster looms on the horizon. Will this country never learn?

Birds are cool. Humans are better.

We have our own refineries and pipelines.

Canada is your number one supplier of crude. It's coming to you on rail, by truck and by pipeline already.

Keystone I and II went to Illinois and Oklahoma. Your refineries on the Gulf have been chomping at the bit for Keystone XL. As it stands now the southern leg of the pipeline has been completed. The northern leg will bring not only Canadian crude but your Bakken fields crude.

Look you only produce 8 or 9 million barrels a day but America uses 18 million barrels a day. Your EIA predicts imports easily up to 2040.

And this issue over Keystone XL has just turned into a politcal circus because of Obama and his penchance for aligning himself with enviro whackos who have deep pockets.

Here's the proof that there has been no problem with importing crude via pipeline before. Best letter of recommendation TransCanada could hope.

Media Note
Office of the Spokesman

Keystone Pipeline Presidential Permit
On March 14, the Department of State issued a Presidential Permit authorizing TransCanada Keystone Pipeline LP to construct, operate and maintain facilities related to the Keystone crude oil pipeline project. The Keystone pipeline will extend 1,300 miles from the Canadian border through the U.S. Midwest. When fully operational, the Keystone pipeline is anticipated to increase U.S. oil imports from Canada by an amount equivalent to as much as 4.5 percent of total U.S. daily imports.

Canada is the United States' largest supplier of oil, natural gas, and electricity. The Department has determined that issuance of the permit to TransCanada Keystone Pipeline LP is in the national interest, in part, because it increases U.S. market access to crude oil supplies from a stable and reliable trading partner, Canada, that is in close proximity to the United States.


Canadian oil represents a safe, secure supply for the North American market. In 2004, Canada became the largest supplier of crude oil to the United States. In 2006, Canada supplied the United States with 2.3 million barrels of oil per day (mbd), equivalent to 17% of total U.S. imports.

The permit was signed in the State Department’s Treaty Room by the Undersecretary of State for Economics, Energy and Agriculture Affairs, Reuben Jeffery III, who also serves as the Department’s International Energy Coordinator. Canadian Ambassador Michael Wilson witnessed the signature.

The United States and Canada have a wide array of bilateral and multilateral mechanisms to discuss energy and the environment, and will continue to address the importance of mitigating greenhouse gases from all sources of energy production.

Prior to making its determination to issue the permit to TransCanada Keystone Pipeline LP, the Department completed an environmental review of the entire project.

All public documents related to the Department’s decision regarding TransCanada Keystone LP’s application can be downloaded at www.keystonepipeline.state.gov.

Baloney.

I mean, ever since oil fracking was exposed for killing people

Link?

 

[Harry Dresden]

35 more permanent jobs than the stimulus package gave us at no expense to the taxpayers.

For Dems this is a bad idea, they want more stimulus money for ZERO permanent jobs.

^ According to Dean, 94% of Engineers and scientists are Democrats

I don't know anyone by the name of Dean. If you own an apartment complex, I'm sure you know that it needs up-keep...that is unless you're a slum-lord.

you have been here a year and a half.....you expect anyone to believe you have never been in a Dean thread?...or at least know about him?....
