    Keiser Report: Crypto in the Age of Trump (E1023)

    "In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max and Stacy present their own dodgy dossier handed to them on social media and it shows central banks were forced into enabling the destruction of the global economy and financial system. In the second half, Max interviews venture capitalist, Brock Pierce of Blockchain Capital about crypto in the age of Trump."

    I feel a bit nauseated.
    There is a black snake.
    It is slithering under foot in all the pipelines.
    Apparently in anticipation of his role, of moving the snake forward.....Trump used to like to quote a poem about a snake.
    Here is the ending.

    "I saved you," cried that woman
    "And you've bit me even, why?
    You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die"
    "Oh shut up, silly woman," said the reptile with a grin
    "You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
    "Take me in, oh tender woman
    Take me in, for heaven's sake
    Take me in oh tender woman, " sighed the snake

    The United States will never free itself from Globalist control, while we are dependent on foreign oil.

    As long as just one among us is still driving a gasoline powered vehicle, using a farm tractor, a quad, a lawn mower, a chainsaw, or traveling on mass transportation, flying in a plane, buying consumer goods that were delivered to market by truck…. if anyone of us are participating in the consumption of oil, than we have no right to protest the development of that resource, especially when developing our own oil reserves promotes national sovereignty.

    The world is twenty, thirty, perhaps even fifty years away from total oil independence. Why not free ourselves from that dependence on foreign oil, if we have the resources to do that?

    Developing our own natural resources is a step forward in reclaiming our national sovereignty. Compare this to cutting our own firewood to individually free ourselves from economic bondage.

    Now, as for routing a pipeline through sensitive territory, this is yet another issue. Every reasonable effort should have been taken to respect the territorial rights of the indigenous people whose tribal lands are being violated.

    Common sense dictates: reroute the pipeline, don’t close it down.

    Just a gentle reminder....

    Oil Imports reported now.




    So based on this report which may go away any day now...as sites like this are going down.

    http://www.eia.gov/dnav/pet/pet_move_wimpc_s1_w.htm


    Noting the Keystone Pipeline is and always was an oil pipeline system in Canada and the United States, commissioned in 2010. It runs from the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin in Alberta to refineries in Illinois and Texas, and also to oil tank farms and an oil pipeline distribution center in Cushing, Oklahoma.

    The Keystone Pipeline (Phase I), delivering oil from Hardisty, Alberta, over 3,456 kilometres (2,147 mi) to the junction at Steele City, Nebraska, and on to Wood River Refinery in Roxana, Illinois, and Patoka Oil Terminal Hub (tank farm) north of Patoka, Illinois, completed in June 2010.

    The proposed Keystone XL Pipeline (Phase IV) would have essentially duplicated the Phase I pipeline between Hardisty, Alberta, and Steele City, Nebraska, with a shorter route and a larger-diameter pipe. It would run through Baker, Montana, where American-produced light crude oil from the Williston Basin (Bakken formation) of Montana and North Dakota would be added to the Keystone's current throughput of synthetic crude oil (syncrude) and diluted bitumen (dilbit) from the oil sands of Canada.

    The Keystone XL Pipeline Project (Phase IV) revised proposal in 2012 consists of a new 36-inch (910 mm) pipeline from Hardisty, Alberta, through Montana and South Dakota to Steele City, Nebraska, to "transport of up to 830,000 barrels per day (132,000 m3/d) of crude oil from the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin in Alberta, Canada, and from the Williston Basin (Bakken) region in Montana and North Dakota, primarily to refineries in the Gulf Coast area."

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keysto...ne#Keystone_XL


    Please enlighten me as to how advancing the Keystone pipeline is alleviating dependence on foreign oil? Boy do I feel stupid today!

    ^^^^ ....Yet, your earlier comment was in protest to the Dakoda Access pipeline. Clearly referenced by crediting the "Standing Rock" Soux Tribe.

    My comment was also directed to the "Standing Rock" situation. Developing the Dakoda Bakken Formation is a step toward developing our own oil resources.

    The Keystone Pipeline was never referenced, and is unassociated to the Dakoda Access Pipeline.

    However, it is a benefit because it frees the US from dependence on Middle Eastern Oil. The numbers on your chart prove that. That Middle Eastern dependence is what has caused the global situation we are currently embroiled within. Middle Eastern Oil has driven the Global Nightmare since oil was first discovered in the Middle East. Think about it....

    Perhaps you should reread my statement. I mentioned Keystone in fact first before Standing Rock. They are both potential environmental disasters in the making. And yes I do stand with Standing Rock.

    You may also want to check out that chart. Our dependence on foreign oil is primarily with Canada.

    Apologies, Shadow, I overlooked your "keystone" reference.

    But what I said regarding Canadian oil vs. Middle Eastern still stands.

    Could you ever expect the US would go to war with Canada over oil? Or attempt a Coup within the Canadian government? Dependence on Canadian oil vs. dependence on Middle Eastern oil.... whose the winner?

    Question

    Well - while you both (Shadowself and Exit 0) almost seem polar opposite in
    political ideological perspectives, i sense you both are true U.S. patriots for
    all essential purpose and intent ... And with that, I also do not see any of
    this discussion really leading to anything other than this tempered restful
    resolve of sorts ... Perhaps you both might be interested in actually talking
    with others in a possible future meetup on The Cosmic Emporium?

    I sense it would be an excellent exercise, in allowing for the detachment from
    these partisan issues which impedes our country's current future progress.

    Please do (both) consider it and get back to (either) Rad or myself in regards.

    And please do note, I appreciate both your contributions here very much indeed !
