Maybe Buffett's railroad will order some tank cars from the plant in Barton, ALABAMA!

The new tank cars will have to be much sturdier and perhaps double walled.  As RR go thru populated areas, safety is utmost.  An advanced industrial facility like Barton should be able to turn out this type car readily. 

Glad to see Buffet is pro Keystone. 

So now you are a fan of Buffetts? Now you think he is giving sound advice? LOL

Is he also right about raising taxes? Do you agree with the Buffett Rule?

One may agree with someone on a point, with out being a sycophant -- another difference between a conservative and a progressive -- no cult of the personality amongst conservatives. 

Is someone required to always agree with 100% of what someone says?

`The left is wedded to the cult of the personality -- remember all those big posters and statues of Dear Leader in every communist nation.  And, the paeans of praise to Obama from children, the speech between columns in Berlin and torchlight parade later -- that one chilled me -- at least it wasn't in Nuremberg.  Once went to Zeppelinfeld in Nuremberg to see a little Jewish kid from the midwest sang Masters of War.   Loved the irony. 

No to both of you. I am asking a question, but got no answer. I find it funny though that Buffett has been touted as someone not worth listening to, until he says something you agree with and then suddenly he is the voice of authority. 

Buffett is in the business of making money. I would expect him to see the pipeline from an economic viewpoint. Just as he sees the tax issues. He has tried to tell America how to raise more revenue, but those on the right don't want to hear it. NOW, he is talking about one of your own personal pet projects and you are all ears. Its the same man, with the same brilliant mind for making money. 

I hope you continue to listen to him. Maybe you will start to see his sound advice in other areas. I am not against the pipeline. Never have been. My only concern has been the safety of transport. Sounds like Buffett is only concerned about that too. If those issues are addressed then I see no reason why the pipeline should not be approved.

To answer your question, I would be for the Buffett rule if it meant tax cuts for those making under $1m from ordinary income.

I'd vote NO on the Keystone pipeline

If they were to change their business model to sell the product here in the USA, I might be willing to reverse that, but as long as all the refined product is scheduled to go overseas, and tax free on top of that, I vote no. Use it for leverage to get the product would be the smart thing.

Much of the Keystone product will be sold in the US.  Others products probably won't.  The US imports oil from a number of nations and sells the surplus elsewhere,  What should we do with it -- dump it in the gulf!

Perhaps, you should direct you remarks to Obama's sycophants.  I'm not the one advising speeches in Berlin between paper mache columns, or the torchlight parade.  Nor, am I the one writing the hymns, pledges and marching tunes for Obama Youth to perform.  Its not just communists,, the fascists did it and in Africa the Big Man propaganda emulate the same tactics.
