Reduced Rate | Keystone Pipeline
February 9, 2012 – 1:59 amGrapevine is a sampling of comments and observations on a variety of timely topics submitted by readers of The Daily Times.
Yes, the keystone pipeline would create jobs in the United States. But when the pipeline is finished, there will be layoffs of those thousands of people. The oil would be sold to the highest bidder on the market. Republicans will then line their own pockets with all the money, and pay a 15 percent tax rate while the workers who built the pipeline will pay 30 percent. President Barack Obama should agree to the pipeline only if the United States gets 80 percent of the oil at a reduced rate in exchange for the right of way.

The oil from the Keystone pipeline was never intended to be sold to the United States. There is an existing pipeline that delivers oil to the Midwest, and therefore is subject to U.S. law and must be used in our country. The Keystone pipeline is designed to deliver oil directly to the Gulf of Mexico, where it will not be subject to U.S. law and can be sold to anyone. TransCanada can get a higher price by selling to China — that’s why it wants this pipeline. The entire project is a way to bypass U.S. law.
The Keystone pipeline project should be killed. Canadians do not want pollution created by the refining process; we get leaks that always happen; people get their land taken for the rights-of-way; and we get a few short-term jobs that will probably be done by illegals to save money. The oil will go to the highest bidder, not us, and multinational oil companies do not pay their share of taxes; we subsidize them. Check the numbers and wake up.
