I'm not sure I agree with what he says about the Keystone Pipeline, but I agree with what he says about income inequality. 

I am immediately skeptical of his motives when is major idea is build a pipeline and get to fracking as the solution to income inequality. He, in essence, says it's a good thing because that's capitalism. Yes it's a good thing for a couple thousand people. The rest are screwed. 

 

I'm not sure what the solution is (not the the ultra wealthy would allow a real solution to be implemented) but I am pretty sure the one he proposed isn't a solution at all. Aren't people already worried (at best) about the current drop in oil prices because it would put American production out of business due to the current cost per barrel reach prices below our costs of extraction?
