    You dig ditches. That's not the same.. Although you should still acknowledge that Biden f----- up closing the Keystone pipeline . I'm sure Hunter saw all this coming though.

    I build high rise buildings, highways, runways, subdivisions, streets, sidewalks, bikepaths, dams, settlement ponds, diversion ditches, man made islands and scaffolding. I'm a pipeliner (pipe above ground), I'm a pipefiter (pipe in facilities), I'm a pipelayer (pipe in ground).

    I've built a hundred miles of pipeline that crude oil flows through...

    Also, I bartend... bounce/event security, invest, landlord, furniture install, talent manage and a bunch of other stuff.


    The price of gas is high because the demand disappeared during the pandemic and then the supply ran low... now demand is high... this and OPEC manipulation drives oil price high... which happens to be great for me... seeing how I will always be able to pay for gas no matter the price and I make more money and have more opportunity when the price of oil is high.

    The keystone XL pipeline wouldn't move the global price of oil enough to effect the price of gas by a nickle.

    this is probably the answer to the question i came to ask:

    if we just now, today, decided to no longer purchase oil from russia, then why did the price of gas skyrocket over the past month leading up to today? oil companies smell fear in the air and decide to f--- us at first scent?

    OPEC controls the price of oil. Nothing else puts a dent into the price at the pump.

    Goddam you are so stupid... you probably think Trump's idea of painting the Chinese flag on our F-22s and bombing Russia is a brilliant military strategy.

    No I don't think about Trump as much as you do. That is a good idea though. I'm talking about your boy Biden being a failure. Call me stupid again though and we can see who is smarter, tough guy.

    So USA officials are ok with us risking our safety by providing jets as a NATO country, but are not okay with NATO alliance providing those jets, because of safety reasons? It seems like they are looking for someone else to do their dirty work. I understand if there would be no previous public comments by Blinken about this issue, but in this case it looks the way I just stated.

    "We need energy independence! f--- Russia, more 'murican pipelines!" - Republicans

    > Reject electric vehicles
    > Reject solar power
    > Reject wind power
    > Promote drilling our own oil, in turn depleting resources within our own territory and eventually f---ing over our future independence - should we ever need it.

    You'd think they'd see value in giving imaginary paper money to Russia and/or Saudi Arabia for their finite resources while we can and keep our stash...but that might be too much to assume considering it doesn't have anything to do with Jesus or unborn babies.

    this boycott is bs, Its like companies punished me as a citizen back when the Iraq War because the Spanish president decided to invade against my will. Also Id like to see the same enthusiasm boycotting Israel but hey the West decides whats right from wrong! Also the companies only do it for their own publicity obviously.

    We need to chill out? We weren’t the ones talking about this on national stage. You guys wanted to wage your wars through another country.
