February 4, 201412 yr Author Pipeline regulation enforcement is a mess, and not only in North Dakota. Have not heard of any major spills, unless I missed it. And if it is that bad, why have they not shut it down?

North Dakota farmer makes crude discovery: largest oil spill on US soil | Fox News Train Accident in North Dakota Shows the Dangers of Oil Transportation | TIME.com As you've pointed out countless times that first link is from a biased source so I'll ignore it completely. The second one is about a train wreck that could have happened anywhere, has absolutely nothing to do with anything the Governor has done.

He's a tank engine and he could have taken it safely to the island of Sodor. Percy could have pitched in and Henry too. That Republican guy should have had the good sense to at least hire a more qualified group. Sir Topham Hatt could have been far more reliable.

I knew someone would comment on it. Ha ha ha.
February 4, 201412 yr Author These two links should get you up to speed on the problem. North Dakota farmer makes crude discovery: largest oil spill on US soil | Fox News Train Accident in North Dakota Shows the Dangers of Oil Transportation | TIME.com I do remember these 2 incidents, just forgot where they took place. It is bad when these accidents happen, but we need the oil. What I am going to say will generate enough energy to light a major city for a year. We must move forward with production. The accidents did cause problems and destroyed the farmer's property. You make improvements in safety and go forward. If we stopped every time there is an accident in relation to any advancement, we would still be using horses and dogs for transportation. Improve and move forward.
February 4, 201412 yr Build the pipeline and stop transporting as much oil by train. State department says it won't adversely affect the environment. Since we're talking supposition may had Obama not drug his feet for 5 years to appease the enviro-nazis the train accident would have been prevented.
February 4, 201412 yr Big oil is putting a real hurt on North Dakota's environment. No it's not but it is putting a real gain on their economy.
February 4, 201412 yr No it's not but it is putting a real gain on their economy. Did you see the news about the sex trafficing in those areas?
February 5, 201412 yr Did you see the news about the sex trafficing in those areas? Sex trafficking is that the same as prostitution?
February 5, 201412 yr Sex trafficking is that the same as prostitution? No. Well, sorta. Except the women/girls are not willing participants.

There you go again, Jumper Dad, clouding the issue with truth.
February 5, 201412 yr Did you see the news about the sex trafficing in those areas? Usually I would make some sarcastic remark about maybe it being George Bush's fault. But this seems like an issue more up Clinton's alley.
February 5, 201412 yr Thomas wouldn't have spilled it. He's a tank engine and he could have taken it safely to the island of Sodor. Percy could have pitched in and Henry too. That Republican guy should have had the good sense to at least hire a more qualified group. Sir Topham Hatt could have been far more reliable. How about Gordon?
February 5, 201412 yr Back to Wisconsin's budget surplus, I am hoping our posters can help with this. I read where many states (perhaps 35 or so) are experiencing a budget surplus. If this is true, why is Kentucky still in a budget crisis? What is happening in those other 35 states that isn't happening in Kentucky? It obviously isn't because of budget cuts. Kentucky slashed their budget tremendously. Why do other states have a surplus and Kentucky has a budget crunch?
