#2 Infrastructure jobs don't have to be government-financed.
It is so sad to see people working so hard to block projects like these because they believe they are protecting the environment - new pipelines are significantly safer for the environment than alternative existing transportation systems like old pipelines and railroads: is your new car more likely to get you where you are going safely and efficiently than your 1946 Buick? Do you spill more water carrying it in buckets to water your plants or using the hose? Etc. Fools.

Bobby, do you really think Proggies and Greenies that that those are good things? They want poor folk living in hovels begging for crumbs to enhance control.
