Keystone XL - POOF. You wanted this ****ing creep, America, you got him. That’s a LOT of jobs. Among other insane EO’s. F this guy and F you if you voted for him.
Cursing does not make a lie true. Lying and cursing degrades you and negates your argument.
Try to learn coding and see what happens. Your comment is ignorant at another level.
Most of the workers in the oil and gas industry do not have transferable skills.
1)The industry isn’t going away anytime soon. It will wind down over the next few decades where people who retire won’t be replaced, etc.
2)Those in a dying industry who are younger and/or resourceful will find a way to either transfer their skills or obtain new ones. This is how an evolving free market economy works. You whining that your job is going away sounds so entitled. You sound like a government employee.
It's funny when people act as keyboard warriors on google, find one article, and paste it as the sole source of truth.
Have you been ignoring farmers on purpose or just searched google for a single article to support your agenda? Because farmers have been opposing the pipeline in large numbers for quite some time.
Farmland is a farmer's most valuable asset. I suggest you do some research and learn about farmers in America rather than appearing unknowledgeable on the topic.
Did you read the articles you linked? I read the first one (haven't gotten to the second one), and it's a well-balanced account of how the pipeline impacted some people along its route. Some people are in favor of the pipeline, some are opposed; some people have had a harmonious relationship with it, some people have not. It seems to have worked out pretty well, but certainly not perfectly. But still, it's a far cry from saying that "farmers have been opposing the pipeline in large numbers for quite some time."

Don't like the message? Attack the messenger. Typical leftist tactics. I won't detail my ties to Farming as you'll just call me a lair suffice to say I'm very familiar with the life ....

Liberals take everything personally. We have a farmer on this thread expressing his understanding of the situation.
I'm not sure why you feel people will call you a liar.. perhaps that's the position liberals have put themselves in.

Like a good progressive Biden will just invade Syria and bomb some more brown people to run pipelines in the Middle East. I guess Libya and Yemen were warm ups, now Biden is salivating for the Syrians. Progressives, exploiting American jobs while destroying foreigners in the process.
I'm a truck driver. And again, pipeline construction is temporary
Simple generate it out of the atmosphere using the electricity of the car motor. The motor can make it's own fuel if it's designed to run on hydrogen as a hybrid.
H2O. 2 parts hydrogen, one part oxygen. Stick a spark inside a cup of water and the hydrogen generation begins.
Once exhausted by the vehicle, it re-combines with oxygen in the air to form water again.
You just described a perpetual motion machine. Car runs on hydrogen, and uses the power generated to make more hydrogen. Sorry, but its not possible to generate more energy than it consumes.
