You note that 4000-5000 people lost their jobs that day. Were those refinery workers processing the oil from that pipeline? Were they truckers transporting the fuel products that came out of the refinery? No.
The people who lost their jobs that day were the construction workers who would have been building the pipeline. No spigot was shut off; there was no spigot to shut off.
The Keystone XL pipeline expansion would have transported tar sands oil to refineries in the gulf. The output of those refineries would then be sported overseas, not a drop of fuel would be sent to US pumps.
Again, no spigot was shut off; there was no spigot to shut off. Got it?
