If only someone had predicted this could have happened and tried to stop the pipeline from being built...

Huh who would have guessed this pipeline was a terrible idea I'm shocked! Shocked, I tell you! Theyve had a few spills ... more than you would hope to have on a line thats still fairly new, said Carl Weimer, executive director of the Pipeline Safety Trust in Bellingham, Washington, a nonprofit promoting pipeline safety. Huh, imagine that.... A pipeline that leveraged sheer political partisan football to ram through its approval without adequately studying its environmental concerns first ended up being less reliable than claimed. But why? Why would the industry that stood to massively financially benefit from it opening as soon as possible and who knows that executives are never held accountable for their criminal decisions by the government....lie to us? It...it just doesn't make any sense! ... Copied to Clipboard!

He'll certainly make moves to shore up environmental protections and beef up regulati- oh, wait :/ I wonder what it's like, running a huge company and knowing I can push out complete lies and fabrications about the safety and quality of my product in order to win a contract award, and then regardless of the damage my actions cause the rest of the world, I will never ever EVER face the possibility of a jail term and the only financial punishment I may receive is a golden parachute on my way out... ...

Some conservatives are going to come here and say how pipelines are the safest way to move oil.
Which is ridiculous, because even if a tanker truck tips over, that's about 8k gallons at once, instead of 350k gallons. --- People come up to me... concerned.. that I'll reproduce." - Emo Philips ... Copied to Clipboard!

If only someone had predicted this could have happened and tried to stop the pipeline from being built... https://www.cbsnews.com/news/train-that-derailed-in-west-virginia-had-new-tanker-cars-for-crude-oil/ 350k gallons is nothing compared to the millions that have been leaked by train derailments, etc. While all methods carry risk, pipelines are STILL by far the safest delivery method (well, second-safest after boat) https://www.forbes.com/sites/jamesconca/2018/10/11/which-is-safer-for-transporting-crude-oil-rail-truck-pipeline-or-boat/#2a5585d27b23 Not that any of this matters to the eco crowd whose propaganda you're swallowing whole and then asking for seconds & thirds, because up until you can't start your car or heat your home, you're not going to appreciate why we need oil. --- (\/)(\/)|-| Scientists are finally waking up to what pyramids have known all along. ...
