More likely most would be limited to a path somewhere on the back 40. Hence more detail would be required to conclude degree of "foreighn invasion". |

It should have absolutely nothing to do with politics. Any pipeline built today will be a lot better than the 50 plus year old pipelines that currently run all over the US. I lived in Michigan when a 48" pipeline broke 200 yards from our house. There were over 600 homes evacuated for several days. The break contaminated everyone's wells. The pipeline was over 50 years old and had never been inspected. Oh, by the way, in the form of a settlement, we god $453 dollars per household, city water and a water bill.

How many of them are there? How many homes affected VS being on the back 40? What is the opinion of each of those who have such property? Then we can address the issue fairly instead if emotionally. |

Why is there not an uproar coming from those affected in all the states.....instead of just from those with a political persuasion ONLY? |

Then why don't we just shut down ALL of the pipelines and ship all oil by rail and truck? What I am saying is that everybody knows that with today's technology, the US can build a much better pipeline than what was built 50+ years ago. If anything, we should be shutting down all of the old pipelines and building new ones.
