Feds putting CORPORATION needs ahead of everything…
After the residents suffer the risks that fracking will destroy the groundwater and poison their wells, the payoff was to be energy independence for the country. But these pipelines are to take America’s natural resources and export them. There goes big business again, pretending to be on our side until they get what they want, then selling out. We want to build the country, they demand maximum profits. Heat homes in Winter? Nah, load it on a barge and sell it to China. This is a third world economy, where resources are exploited and the raw material is sold to benefit the rich. The rest get the pollution, they don’t get cheaper heating bills and good jobs.
I’ve read they are also trying to run these pipelines thru heritage farms in Pennsylvania.
