The Pros And Cons Of Trans Alaska Pipeline

“Yesterday is not ours to recover, but tomorrow is ours to win or lose” – Lyndon B. Johnson (quotes.net,© 2001-2017 STANDS4 LLC). Johnson strived to make tomorrow great for America by passing many laws that is still effective today. Lyndon Baine Johnson was born on August 27, 1908 in Stonewall, Texas. He grew up with a loving Mother and father.

But this didn’t stop the other Barbary states, who continued to demand money. Jefferson’s actions led to other US navy missions to end all tribute payments for

I think it’s amazing that 18 months after being admitted to Lake House I am graduating. I was admitted to Lake House for many different behaviors and now I can proudly say that I have truly transformed and become a very confident person. I am very proud of myself and not only that but my family because they have worked just as hard as me to help make my family work the way it does now.

This law increased custom duties by nearly 50% on imports of more than 20,000 types of goods. Many countries, as a retaliatory measure, also increased their import taxes. As a result, world trade fell sharply, which contributed to exacerbating the Great Depression. With overproduction still occurring, this international standstill only made to intensify the already critical situation. The tariff also increased living costs, limit exports and hurt investors as the high tariffs would make it harder for debtors to pay off loans, continuing to weaken banks.

The powerful words, “We stand for our people, for our nation. We stand for our brothers and our sisters. We stand for water, for life”(Urban Native Era), are chanted by protesters as the fight against Energy Transfer and its construction of the Dakota access pipeline ensues. According to MSNBC, this $3.7 billion dollar project in the making is half completed and will run through four different states including, Iowa, Illinois, South Dakota and North Dakota. Essentially, the pipeline will be delivering 470,000 barrels of oil daily along the 1,100 mile stretch (NBC).

According to a study released last year by the Pew Hispanic Center, as of 2008, 11.9 million illegal immigrants lived in the United States, more than triple the 3.5 million who lived in the country in 1990 (Izumi). Immigration throughout the years has become a major issue in the U.S because of too many immigrants entering the country year after year. The U.S has come to a point whether they should deport the immigrants back to their country. Believe it or not, these immigrants are a big contribution to the U.S. If it wasn’t for them, the U.S economy wouldn’t be where it stands now.

My perceptions regarding Alaskan drilling have not changed, I believe that the Alaskan Wilderness should not be drilled for oil. My decision rests on the fact that the Alaskan wilderness is an irreplaceable natural resource and the possible oil resources it may or may not yield, are not worthy of its destruction. Viewing this situation as a dispassionate observer, there is no overwhelming motive for the U.S. to drill in Alaska. Scientists have largely stated that the oil reserves in Alaska may not yield the amount or quality of oil once believed, therefore it does not warrant the expenditure of time, money, and resources to disrupt the environment. Advocates argue that drilling would decrease fuel prices, create new jobs, and end our foreign

After weighing in the positives and negatives a great amount of people including myself can say that the positives about Texas outweighs the negatives. People have found Texas a great place to live, especially to build a career, because it has the infrastructure and the circumstances that raise job establishment and job success. Most of people that do live in Texas have learn to deal with the minor problems because it is definitely worth

Oil fracking has caused a lot of controversy the last couple years. Many believe that it is causing more harm than good. The House Committee of Natural Recourses had an entire meeting discussing oil fracking on federal managed and Native Lands. It also uses an incredible amount of water and chemicals.

This unemployment rate affect many people causing them to lose their job and find new work even though it was hard due to the economy being bad and this makes things get worse and a worse till something comes along and changes the outcomes. Also both of the declines in the economy had warning signs that either the government or people who knew the stock market backwards and forwards knew that something bad was about to happen and there was no way to fix it because it had already gone too far in the hole for them to fix it without having a catastrophe of some sort. Although

The Keystone pipeline should not be built because it endangers the environment and has the ability to create catastrophic damages through pollution and habitat desecration. Though many see benefits to the addition of a national pipeline, the effects and dangers must outweigh any slight economic gain. A small gain in government currency should never endanger the future loss of an environment, which is something than can cannot be

Today, the Trump administration granted approval of Keystone XL pipeline. Although the long winded effort of protesters were able to delay further action, the project is back for more. To gain the approval of republican party, Louisiana Representative Steve Scalise tweeted, “Thank you @POTUS for approving the Keystone XL pipeline, creating thousands of jobs for Americans & unleashing our energy independence!” Unlike many of the tweets that say something along the lines of, “it’s happening and you’re going to like it” by the Republican party, I felt this one was good at highlighting benefits that Americans truly care about right now. However, their PR efforts continue to fall short.

Have you ever wondered about the Dakota access pipeline and thought is it good or bad. The Dakota access pipeline is an “Oil pipeline that would run diagonally across Iowa, through 18 counties, from northwest Iowa to southeast Iowa” (Tyler Durden, 2016). Even though I do not support the pipeline, because of damaging reasons, it does help our economy become more desirable. First I do not support this pipeline considering it does not help our environment.

Before the FTA, tariffs on trade goods between countries were very high, making it very hard to make money as any exports were taxed immediately. These tariffs placed a

The week following this, most American banks would resume operations but this whole motion would not settle well with Huey furthering their rivalry. This was in response to the Great Depression growing worse. Huey would respond by stating that there needed to be a 100% tax on the rich (Bondi, Page 93-117). Huey kept getting high appraisal for his ideas and he was a huge fan of John L. Lewis and claimed that he was the Huey Long of Labor which would help him gain greater popularity among the labor unions (Bondi, Page 133). Huey Long’s “Share the Wealth” deal would be unveiled through a national radio address on February 23, 1934.
