Hmmm. I remember the proponents were saying we'd use the oil here...but
no one believed them.

Anyone who said that was not very well informed. Are you listening to
fox again?


So, we've stopped importing oil and we can't make quality steel anymore.

Yes and no in that order.

We are net exporters of oil/gas and we want to expand that.

As for steel, I think we know how to make good steel but we just can't
do it as cheap as China. I also wonder if we even have the capacity to
supply that much. The same issue came up with the Alaska pipeline and
our steel business was bigger then.


I don't see where average Americans will receive direct benefits from
the pipeline.
