There should be another large pipeline for subsidies and Taxbreaks, another for bribes and politician's endorsements, and maybe a larger jobs pipeline for lobbyist and lawyers.

While he was at it, he should have put it through wilting Corn and Wheat fields (Can't wait to see like what kind of twist and turns it's going to take to avoid rich farms - like the old railroads), along with Livestock wearing gas masks and/or bio suits

Erik: LOL. Keystone will probably create more jobs for lobbyists and corporate hustlers than the number of actual construction/maintenance jobs. And no doubt the property rights of Big Ag factory farmers will be safeguarded much more closely than the rights of family farmers.

The conservatives like to complain about how so many of the new jobs being added in America are of a temporary nature. They also like to talk about how the Keystone thing is a "jobs bill". Well, guess what. There won't be enough permanent jobs from Keystone to make a bit of difference. People who talk up Keystone as a generator of jobs are charlatans. Maybe it's just because the left is against it that so many on the right seem to be for it?

Snave: It's absurd how many people actually think Keystone approval is a "jobs bill." The politicians and Big Oil lobbyists certainly know it's a scam, but they know they can count on their useful idiots to keep on voting against their own interests, again and again.
