I think Cushing is the termination for the new part .
The Keystone Pipeline?
It terminates in Cushing, why would Texas farmers have land being seized? Why would they have to drive around it? Maybe for a short time during the construction phase. And I'm pretty sure no one's land is being seized. Pipe line damage compensation is usually pretty generous. I do understand there are some people that would rather not have a pipeline on them, but, a lot are happy to have the money. Sometimes it means the difference between keeping and losing land. Once the pipe line is in, everything pretty much goes back to the way it was on farm land. On pasture the pipe line leaves a mark, but no worse than plowing would. Sorry OP, that was off topic.
At least the Canadians are polite. It does say condemn the land. But it also says they will follow all state and federal laws . Which I assume means it will be buried exactly like every other pipeline, so their lands should only be impassable during the construction phase, and the norm I've seen is that crossovers are either completed right at the start or right at the end. Allowing "blue helmets for oil" is almost a ludicrous as saying we're trading blood for oil .And remember this:
TransCanada is not a US company. It is a foreign company seizing the private land of American land owners and tax payers.
I don't hate Big Oil.No more comments here from me, we hijack the OP's thread with an "I hate big oil" thread.
I for one apologize for that .
That's Hebrew. And no, it doesn't say that.
LOTR doesn't match me at all.
I don't hate Big Oil.
I hate fuzzy furreigners taking American's land by force so they can transport their foreign oil to refineries on the gulf coast and sell and ship to China.
John Wayne must be rolling over in his grave.
I'm out too.
