WOW! Thanks for the info We are paying around $10 a barrel to move that stuff - we need a pipeline. It makes one think money talks and Warren Buffett backed Obama in exchange for a promise to delay the pipeline until his last year in office... I figure Buffett extracted a good deal of blood from GE and GS in exchange for cash AND his backing which helped confidence (hell, I bought a bundle of GE knowing Buffett was a backstop - GE March 4 Buy Alert at $6.76.) I think Buffett's backing of Obama was valuable and came at a price... but probably no different than the price the oil industry got from Bush2. I doubt anyone in elected government actually puts what is good for the nation first....
