Quote:I think this applies more to the roads, water/power distribution type of public works infrastructure than to primarily private use infrastructure. Private industry can crank out a project like this in record fashion if it will make a buck. None of this applies though since the pipeline is already built correct?  

 

I don't think we're talking about the same thing. I'm saying right now oil prices are low, demand is low, a pipeline that will take a while to build (I'm not sure how long) wouldn't make a difference in the global market in the next few years. However, if demand goes back up and oil prices skyrocket not having that pipeline could possibly make a difference in the future, it's at that point in the future we will be able to gauge if the pipeline is worth it or not.
