Republican Led Manipulation of Petro Fuel
With the many Republican's filing suit about the Keystone Pipeline, they have taken their malice even further in their devotion to "Big Oil"... Because the construction work has stopped on a line that "was not in production to services any supply, They have engaged with Oil Producers to manipulate pricing and delivery of existing fuel.
We know, that our Oil Reserves were nearly overly flowing, and as far back during the Obama Administration we had become Energy Independent and an function without the any wild swings in Foreign Oil prices. There is absolutely no need for the prices of Oil to be on an upswing.
As usual Republican backed programming to try and force people to support Keystone, by "hitting them in the pockets" is nothing more than a habitual practice of Republicans Devotion to Big Industry with little to no regard for the general public.

If ever there was an environmental battle exemplifying a game of ping pong, it would be the stop-start story of the Keystone XL pipeline, also known as KXL. From the time it was proposed in 2008, through more than 10 years of dogged citizen protest and various conflicting legislative and executive orders by the federal government, the path for this controversial oil pipeline has never been smooth. Many had hoped that the disastrous project was finally done for in November 2015, when the Obama administration vetoed the pipeline—acknowledging its pervasive threats to climate, ecosystems, drinking water sources, and public health, and advancing a national commitment to decreasing our reliance on dirty energy. But immediately after taking office, President Trump reversed course and signed an executive order to advance Keystone XL (as well as the Dakota Access Pipeline).
The Keystone XL pipeline extension, proposed by energy infrastructure company TC Energy (formerly TransCanada) in 2008, was designed to transport the planet’s dirtiest fossil fuel to market—fast. An expansion of the company’s existing Keystone Pipeline System, which has been operating since 2010 (and is already sending Canadian tar sands crude from Alberta to various processing hubs in the middle of the United States), it would dramatically increase capacity to process the 168 billion barrels of crude oil locked up under Canada’s boreal forest. To be precise, it would transport 830,000 barrels of Alberta tar sands oil per day to refineries on the Gulf Coast of Texas.
Some 3 million miles of oil and gas pipelines already run through our country. But Keystone XL wouldn’t be your average pipeline, and tar sand oil isn’t your average crude.

- It's time for people to awaken to the political games played by Republicans, their games is NEVER to the benefit of American citizen's concerns. (regardless of of the concern or issue !!!!)
