The point of my thread was to show that the argument for building the pipelines to lower gas prices is a false one. Republican politicians have been acting like this pipeline will cure the problem of high gas prices but according to the analysts in the oil and gas industry the Keystone pipeline will raise prices at least in parts of the country. The Washington Post also fact checked the number of jobs this project would create and found a number of around 13,000 temporary jobs over 2 years. That is hardly the economic boon people make it out to be. I support these pipelines being built but the benefits of them are small and not worth the time the story gets in the media.
Keystone XL Pipeline Will Raise Gas Prices.
