But I have to admit, Biden has started out way more left of center than I imagined. And honestly, I don’t care. I think not building the pipeline is a slap in the face to Canada and benefits China, Russia, and the Middle East, but does nothing to stop extraction or environmental destruction. Again, fracking is worse for the environment by orders of magnitude and is how North America gets a majority or its hydrocarbons. That said, my perspective is the losing one in a democracy of my peers, so I accept this wrong decision as I’m sure many many more had to suffer under far worse decisions under trump, who I regrettably voted for. That’s how dad felt about democracy. That’s how America feels about democracy
Why do we need two keystone pipelines?
