In reply to the discussion: Protesters Hilariously Troll DINO Senator With Inflatable KXL Pipeline On Her Lawn [View all]aspirant
(3,533 posts)See if I understand this. The filthy tar sands are going to Texas, not La., so not 1 job is created in La. The Louisianas are harvesting their own Gulf oil so the filthy tar sands oil would be competition for La.s Gulf oil. With Saudi Arabia dropping oil prices and the price of oil at the pumps falling, along with filthy tar sands arriving, what is the job security of all the oil workers in La.? How is this protecting Louisianians when a giant competitor enters the market? The native Louisianian poster says there are plenty of pissed off local coastal fishing and shrimpmen so whose asking for their vote? You talk about train screw-ups so why aren't you screaming at the train companies to spend money and upgrade their train cars? You seem to omit the huge disaster a spill in the aquifer would create for generations. You say you know this problem but when asked where you are from, you evade. To conclude, Mary must support the pipeline because we need to stop train spills while ignore pipeline spills and all La.'s love oil competition.
