Unsolicited Advice for Proponents of Keystone

(Photo/huffingtonpost.ca)

Keystone XL pipeline didn't get the needed votes.
Tar sand oil from Canada comes down, by train to boats
In the Gulf of Mexico, for shipment overseas
Which - they say - is dangerous...  The GOP agrees.

If, in fact, that is the case than we should fix the rails;
Update infrastructure now, before the system fails.
If we really want to slow our global climate change
Building something permanent for oil transport is strange.

It won't help when fossil fuel dependence's in our past.
Let's create some other kind of jobs; the kind that last:
High speed rail or better roads - a wind or solar farm.
Let's invest in jobs without environmental harm.
