Dipy. You said...."Of course there are oil tankers. There is a reason why F-man Cheney and his gang favors tankers over pipelines -- tankers can be sent anywhere (for maximum profit) whereas w/ pipelines corporations are stuck supplying oil to the US. They would never let that happen.".....

It is difficult to move oil tankers across land... because of their size they would likely mess up a lot of street lights and things like that so those dumb oil people build pipe lines.

Here is some information which I doubt you will bither reading...heaven forbid you should try and learn something before you post on a topic.

Here. you really should look up a few facts before posting on a topic.

Association of oil pipe lines.
An American supply line-Moving the energy and raw materials of our daily lives.

Pipelines move nearly two-thirds of the ton-miles of oil transported annually. Pipelines are, by far, America's most important petroleum supply line, including crude oil, refined fuel and raw materials.

Practical and Safe
Because of the volume that must be transported, pipelines are the only feasible method for moving the enormous quantities of petroleum America requires to keep going each day.

Replacing even a modest-sized pipeline, which might transport 150,000 barrels per day, would require 750 tanker truck loads per day, a load delivered every two minutes around the clock.

Replacing the same pipeline with a railroad train of tank cars carrying 2,000 barrels each would require a 75-car train to arrive and be unloaded every day.
In addition to their efficiency, pipelines also have important environmental and safety benefits. Compared to other inland transport modes, pipelines do not crowd our highways and rivers and they produce negligible air pollution. Pipelines also have a lower spill rate per barrel of oil transported than competing modes of transportation, namely trucks and barges. Tell me more about pipeline safety.
Cost Efficiency
Petroleum pipelines depend on a relatively small national workforce of about 16,000 skilled men and women, yet that workforce transports over 600 billion ton-miles of freight each year. These workers accomplish this job so efficiently that America's oil pipelines transport 17% of all U.S. freight, but cost only 2% of the nation's freight bill.

Total Freight Transported
Interstate pipelines deliver over 12.9 billion barrels of petroleum each year. (There are 42 gallons in a barrel.) About 59% of the petroleum transported by pipelines is crude oil (7.6 billion barrels) and the remainder (5.3 billion barrels) is in the form of refined petroleum products. The cost to transport a barrel of petroleum products from Houston to the New York harbor is about $1, or about 2 1/2 ¢ per gallon at your local gasoline station.

Petroleum Pipelines in Your Community

With almost one-quarter million miles of petroleum pipelines across the U.S., pipelines are located in many communities. According to the Department of Transportation's accident statistics, pipelines are the safest method of transporting petroleum. They provide the most efficient means of transportation for moving large quantities of crude oil, petroleum, liquefied petroleum gas, petroleum products, chemicals, natural gas, jet fuel, feedstock and other related products. Pipelines can continue to operate safely for an indefinite period of time with adequate maintenance and protection by pipeline operators and the public's cooperation.
