About the same price it was when oil was 140 a barrel?
Why is gas 4 bucks a gallon with a barrel of crude at 95?

So in effect the XL pipeline wont reduce the price of gas?

Newsflash for you, Chesus. Obama shut down the XL pipeline.
Moving crude oil efficiently undoubtedly will have an effect on the price of gasoline. What effect do you think increased efficiency has on the price of goods?

Just learned about this today in my geography class. Apparently, Venezuela is coming into its industrial age, and we are making less gas, and more diesel and shipping it down to them. Therefore less gas production, equals higher prices.

In fact
The republican Govenor of Nebraska shut it down
something about running a crude oil pipeline over one of the worlds largest underground sources of freshwater or some left wing talking point or other
You know something silly like that

Hopefully enough to cause Oil co's. to capture the millions of SQ ft of natural gas they now just "Flair-Off" and turn it into Electricity to power our cars, and homes.
They shouldn't be allowed to waste public resources, if a anyone around here leaves a garden hose running, They get a hefty fine.

Right now Canadian crude gets stuck in Oklahoma
We end up- buying it at a discount
Now if they can get a pipeline built to new orleans they can ship it to China
and Kochs get the money building and maintaining it
I wonder what party the Kochs are funding

N the industry... this sucked.
At issue was the potential environmental impact a pipeline could have on the
Sandhills region and the Ogallala Aquifer, which supplies water to many cities
and ranches and supports the agriculture industry with water for
irrigation.
Nebraska forged ahead with pipeline legislation even after the State
Department's decision to put off giving TransCanada a permit for the Keystone XL
line until 2013.

Corso, you would be putting 83,000 hard working people out of work if you had your wish. With the multiplier effect, probably more like 250,000. You seem to be an Obama-style lefty.

So you are stupid enough to believe
If BP stop existing right now
That Oil would never be pumped out of the ground

This is just garden variety environmentalist obstructionism, hence not surprising that you support it. Routing a pipe line over the Ogalala aquifer is not much of a risk.

I think stupidity and greed should be punished and not rewarded..let another company ..perhaps one that is no inept train and hire the ones that deserve a job...how many people that rely on the gulf coast for a living got fucked by that disgusting spill...I have told ya before..no party affiliation ..they all suck.
