I'm sure the lying memes being spread across social media, false internet stories and newscasts aren't helping situation.
You're in my prayers.
@debrawiest @SZonian If y'all check here, there are links to gofundme accounts where the protesters are raising money.
http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,230260.msg1151063.html#msg1151063 Just type in "Standing Rock" on the go fund me site and there are over 500 of them, and estimates are that they have raised over 2 million dollars there alone. I reckon the same sort of stuff is being used to call for donations elsewhere, and I have little doubt Soros money is in there somewhere.
Considering this pipeline would move about half of the oil being produced from the Bakken/Three Forks formations (or, more accurately, half the oil produced in North Dakota--the #2 oil producing state), someone is making a lot of money every day the pipeline is delayed and that oil goes out by rail instead (BNSF). Warren Buffett is a big shareholder in BNSF, and an alleged pal of Obama.
Wonder why delays from on high? There's the answer.
In the meantime, every day of delay costs the State of ND and royalty owners their shares of the 2.3 million a day the oil companies could be saving, and that also includes extraction tax money that would go to pay down the school portion of property taxes statewide, so everyone pays more. That isn't counting the cost of Law Enforcement efforts in the area, over 10 million now, nor damage to infrastructure or the extra expense for locals to go around the protest area, when possible, to avoid it.
