Why or how is a pipeline more important than efficient low cost rail?

[Hopalong]

Give present federal government credit for action to get pipeline built.
Seems to be in line with what majority want.

No one said to buy the pipeline....all Kinder Morgan needed was a clear path to build it....

But maybe this this is the game plan all along....bailouts by government for so called capitalist companies...

Same thing is happening with steel and aluminum companies ...the federal government will bail them as well.

Funny thing when india imposed a tariff on pulses ...the government told farmers to use up our equity and pound sand....

Majority want a pipeline so it will lower the cost of gas at the pumps, where the gas cost will go higher. Just like potash,
