    Angry KKKoch Brothers Could Make $100 Billion From Toxic KKKeystone XL Pipeline

    Keystone XL Pipeline Could Yield $100 Billion For Koch Brothers

    The Huffington Post | By Jared Gilmour Posted: 10/21/2013 1:14 pm EDT

    Approval of the Keystone XL pipeline could generate $100 billion in profits for billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch, according to a report released Sunday, which revealed the extent to which the Kochs would benefit from the tar sands development the proposed pipeline would help spur.

    A progressive think tank called the International Forum on Globalization completed the study, which found that the Kochs and their privately-owned company, Koch Industries, hold up to 2 million acres of land in Alberta, Canada, the proposed starting point of the Keystone XL. Several Koch Industries subsidiaries stand to benefit from the pipeline's construction, including Koch Exploration Canada, which would profit from oil development on its land, and Koch Supply and Trading, which would benefit from oil derivatives trading.

    The report also estimates that the Koch brothers have given about $50 million to think tanks and members of Congress who have pushed for the pipeline to be built.

    The Keystone XL pipeline is awaiting a final decision from the State Department, which is unlikely to come before 2014. If built, the pipeline would carry about 800,000 barrels of oil per day from Alberta to Gulf Coast refineries. Environmentalists worry about about the climate and environmental impacts the pipeline could have, including dramatically higher greenhouse gas emissions and a heightened risk of oil spills.

    The Kochs are known for their heavy investment in the tea party and their support for congressional inaction on climate change.

    In the past, Koch Industries officials have said the Keystone XL pipeline has "nothing to do with any of our businesses."

    I love Sam Seder, but he's actually wrong there, and Alex Jones is actually correct, at least about one thing.....

    The KKKoch Brothers DID fund the false Democrat organization known as the "Democratic Leadership Council" (DLC). And now that the DLC has rebranded itself as "Third Way", the KKKochs have also rebranded their funding of it as "The Georgia-Pacific Foundation". Though two minutes with a search engine will tell you who owns Georgia-Pacific.

    Now this does NOT mean that the KKKochs are "apolitical" or bi-partisan - actually it's just the opposite. The purpose of the DLC was to pull the Democratic Party to the right. And that has sadly been successful, as the Clinton & Obama administrations have proven, as well as most of the so-called "Democrats" in the US Senate.

    So in conclusion.... Jones had at least SOME of his facts right there, but his conclusion - that the KKKochs are somehow non-partisan - was completely wrong.

    Seder can be a tad overwrought with himself at times but he does know bullshit when he sees it. I agree wholeheartedly with him that Jone$ is a puppet of Koch or at least a partial invention constructed by them. Plus, Seder's takes on the joke that is Libertardianism are priceless.

    I've heard plants grow 50 times their normal size if you feed them that Alex Jones SuperTang™ drink mix.
