The Latest Assault On The Planet Recently we have heard in the news about the Keystone XL Pipeline and the Canadian Tar Sands. Many people have not made the connection about The Dirty Secrets in Alberta Canada and this pipeline but they are directly related to one another. The majority of the people in this country believe that the Keystone XL Pipeline will help reduce our dependency on foreign oil and the price at the pump. Both perceptions are wrong, as most of that Tar Sand is headed to China. In addition, the high pressure that is needed to move that tar sand to Houston puts that pipeline at risk of a catastrophic failure over the largest fresh water aquifer in the United States. Global Warming is a “Hoax!” Just why is it all the Republicans and Tea Baggers want everyone to believe that Global Warming, especially Global Warming which is caused by man is nothing but a Hoax? In conjunction with this, why is it the Republicans and Tea Baggers are pushing for the end of the EPA? Let us first watch this video proving Paul Broun’s position… Let’s think about this for a moment. The Right is pushing the idea that Global Warming by man is a Hoax and they want the elimination of the EPA. Additionally Paul Broun’s partner in crime Fred Upton wants to stop the funding for alternative energy and open oil production in the ANWR Wilderness in Alaska. Any logical person with basic common sense can see the purpose of this multi-pronged attack by the Right. These statements when combined clearly points to the source of this agenda… Big Oil! Pollution by man burning fossil fuels causing Global Warming is a Hoax therefore we should not feel as a society that by driving our and cars fueling big oil is a bad thing. Elimination of the EPA will not only remove regulations keeping big oil in check but will also eliminate the pollution requirements and regulations from the burning of fossil fuel in motor vehicles. Stopping the funding for research and development for alternative energy will lock us into the dependence oil which has a nice ancillary benefit of declaring war in the Middle East fueling the government contractor war machine. Of course this is exactly why Paul Broun claims jobs will be lost as alternative energy will take away money & jobs from big oil and take away money & jobs from the War machine. Finally the little slip in of the “Need to be Drilling Baby Drill” in the ANWR Wilderness. Of course this means more money for big oil and it will cost billions. The Original Alaskan Pipeline cost roughly about 8 Billion dollars to build and that is 1997 dollars for that estimate. A new pipeline from ANWR would be easily triple that, and for what benefit? It has been stated by the industry that the amount of oil that could be produced would amount to an eyedropper comparative to the Middle East. So why bother? Here is your answer to many things, “Alaska’s Pipeline is running on empty.” This site proves that there really isn’t much oil to be produced and secondly Alaska is lobbying to get clearance to drill in ANWR and build a new pipeline, fuel their economy & to continue getting those oil share checks
