Got a citation?
Those companies and others have applied for licenses/permits to build new refineries. So why would they, in effect, stop themselves from building?
They can't get permits due to onerous environmental restrictions, not because they are blocking themselves or others from building.
Antitrust actions like that to restrict supply would lead to treble damages. Not worth the risk.
Also, are you saying that Clinton and Obama - not to mention both Bushes - do the oil companies bidding? Originally Posted by ExNYer

BTW, those 650 jobs are in addition to the 350 that were already put to work, and the maintenance crews that will be hired to maintain the pipe and the pump stations ... and there would be many jobs in addition to pipefitters and welders, CBJ7.
its a Canadian company, Canada brings their own employees... why would a Canadian company want to pay unemployment benefits to American workers when a short term job is finished ? better yet, why would YOU want to pay unemployment benefits to hundreds of American workers after the pipeline has been built ??? so you can bitch about paying unemployment benefits to workers too lazy to get off their ass and find another job???
