Lower costs, not prices. And build infrastructure for all, without rules that benefit a select few.

If Alberta Tar Sands are so bad for the environment, then we should be banning ethanol in the gasoline. That is many times worse for the environment and for the economy.

All this argument about jobs or prices is trivial. Or how spin confuses an issue. The oil must get to refineries.

Meanwhile we also have another extremists law that says US crude cannot be sold to foreign nations. That also makes sense only when extremists rhetoric replaces intelligence. The rhetoric and lies are what lobbyists exist to create. It works when a public only believes the first thing they are told. Ethanol is required in all American gasolines only because of extremist rhetoric invented by lobbyists - and also called lies. Same lies also deny American crude sold to other nations.
