Republicans Reason behind Pushing For the Keystone Pipeline

This isn’t about tax cuts or unemployment benefits or any agencies that would protect our country the equality of human life. In fact the Republicans aren’t pushing hard for this to even create one single job knowing it will create many jobs in the USA and fewer jobs in Canada. This isn’t their reasons for wanting so badly this pipeline.

Fact this pipeline needs more review since it will harm our environment, silly me knowing how congress isn’t interested in this planet at all. On January 22, 2008, ConocoPhillips acquired a 50% stake in the project.

However, on June 17, 2009, TransCanada agreed that they would buy out ConocoPhillips’ share in the project and revert to being the sole owner. It took them almost two year to acquire the permits to even consider this project beginning.

On July 6, 2010, House Energy and Commerce Committee urged the State Department to block Keystone XL this pipeline is a multi-billion dollar investment to expand our reliance on the dirtiest source of transportation fuel currently available.

On July 21, 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency said the draft environmental impact study for Keystone XL was inadequate and needed to be revised, because of of safety issues ,greenhouse gas concerns oil spillage.

One concern is that the pipeline could pollute air and water supplies and harm migratory birds and other wildlife. It will cross the Sand hills in Nebraska, the large wetland ecosystem, and the Ogallala Aquifer, one of the largest reserves of fresh water in the world. The Ogallala Aquifer spans eight states, provides drinking water for two million people, and supports $20 billion in agriculture. Critics are concerned that a major leak could ruin drinking water and devastate the mid-western U.S. economy

Here is the real reason behind this pipeline for the Republicans it will create more wealth for people such as the Koch brothers, Halliburton big oil corporations. And we must not forget our speculators on Wall Street on how they will manipulate the price of crude oil / natural gas for their own special greed.

Republicans in congress is urging this bill to be pushed through since it’s sort of a pay back in favors that will come along down the line with deals that will bring them all a fortune in return. This could be as campaign funds but I’d say the stakes are much higher than just a few hundred thousand millions into a corrupt off shore bank accounts wire Trans actions.

Now if our President does for some horrible reason sign this bill it would be devastating to all who care of our planet this country? It would be a deal breaker with the EPA backing him in this next election also, I believe anyway.

Knowing that Wall Street has a big investment into this pipeline because of the money all will make plus all politicians receive funds from people dealing on Wall Street this could be the make or break in donations backing the politicians campaigns.

But President Obama will put a spin on this bill if forced to sign it claiming of all the jobs it will create and how this country needs to get men, women back to work, Plus how great it would be for our economics of this economy to take us out of a depression not this so called recession that our news media continues to call it.

So in reality there are pros and cons for this pipeline but we must weigh out the bad knowing that this deal truly isn’t about our economics or the people. This is just broker’s deal of how much money can the big oil companies make off of this pipeline.

The hedge fund managers will be having multiple orgasms, brokers will be celebrating as its Christmas every day, and it would be as a gift from God for the next decade champagne caviar will be flowing if this deal goes through for the Republicans and their high society friends on Wall Street.

Bottom line is that the people need to know this is just another political game that the politicians and wealth are playing with the American people not truly giving a rat’s ass about whether we live in poverty or have clean air or water for if they had their way all agencies would be deregulated. While they watch their off shore bank account grows through the hands of their mobster gangster lobbyist brokers.

Remember to listen to every word in between of all their trickery of how they will bamboozle you and to hoodwink all who believe the deceitful illusory, disingenuous, words when they sneak religion to disguise the lies they cry.
