Senator warns China on trade in review of oil deal | Reuters

Chinese to make a $15.1 Billion take-over bid for Nexen Inc. The oil company behind the Keystone line proposal.

And the back peddling by the opponents of the pipeline proposal begins.

Imagine having to purchase North American oil from China?

    I hear...

    negative issues regarding the pipeline are...


    ... it won't produce many permanent jobs and another is...


    ... the original route of the pipeline runs along side lots of water like real close to and endangers the mighty Mississippi and...


    ... also...


    ...we are not promised that oil.

    I hear the pipeline will only be a way for the company to get a extra dirty type of oil from Canada down to the refineries near the gulf of Mexico and then have it shipped overseas.


    Is this just another deal in which a company makes out like a bandit but the people of this nation take all the risks but get minimal return on investment?

    For all the potential danger to the environment combined with the lack of economic benefit to the region and nation as a whole...


    ... what's so great about this particular pipeline and why should anyone have to backpedal on their opposition to the pipeline?
