At that rate, how many jobs per year is that?

Let's see, in one full day he averaged a rate of destroying 44,000 jobs per day. Times 365 days is 16 million jobs gone.

But of course that's not a real, practical way to measure. Throughout most of his campaign, Biden had a habit of calling a "lid" after maybe 3-4 hours, and the lid might go on for days. So if Biden can spend most of his time in the WH bunker and call "lids" as he did before he was President, he might destroy only a million or two jobs per year.

The moral of the story is, the less a Democrat does in office, the better off the country is.
No matter what, it will be Trump fault

BTW, I forgot the most important question:

How, exactly, does cancelling the Keystone Pipeline benefit Americans?

Still haven't figured that one out.

Help me out here?

It certainly benefits the 90 ranchers including Jeanne Crumply who were being sued for their land.

From her article entitled: Keystone XL Just Sued my Family to Take Our Land

TransCanada has been bullying my family and other Nebraska landowners for the past ten years, seeking land that’s been in our families for generations for a pipeline that threatens our farms, our water, and our climate. Now this foreign corporation has filed a lawsuit against my family, and dozens of other farming and ranching families, and intends to abuse eminent domain to take our land for KXL against our wishes.

North American energy Independence benefits us ALL. So that we DON'T have our energy security tied to the Middle East?

How many Americans (let alone, Middle Easterners?) have died because of dependence on Middle Eastern oil?


Anything that helps attain and keep energy independence benefits ALL Americans. It also typically means lower energy prices and higher paying jobs for people in the energy field.



The question is, therefore, how is the Keystone Pipeline NOT beneficial to Americans? And why prioritize junk climate science and environmental concerns (transport by truck and rail is waaaaaay more dangerous and polluting).

Keystone is estimated to bring 2000 temporary jobs for two years and 35 jobs after that.

If he were younger he'd be one of those cringey "I'm a citizen of the WORLD" types (except when asking for AMERICAN tax payer dollars to fund their living expenses, of course).

This is what I’ve always read. The jobs came with the building of the pipeline. Inspection and maintenance of it employs a LOT less people.

Make no mistake, I don't give a damn about Biden's greenie motivations to shut it down. ... and don't get fooled into thinking this is costing tons of American jobs because it isn't. The bulk of the jobs Keystone brought to the US are long gone since the pipeline was completed. Furthermore WHY do you capitalize 'ALL' Americans? Is it your assertion that what's good for Canada is good for the US? ... because it isn't. Why should we care if Canada is energy independent? Better off if they aren't, then they can go fight in the middle east instead of us. They can buy gas from us that they can't refine on their own. That would be hilarious to put them out of the tar sands business by selling them gas refined from light sweet Texas crude that's cheaper to refine than their dirty dinosaur beach sand.
