Well, one of the two Koch brothers is dead so it won't benefit him at all.
The whole reason the XL pipeline was being built was to reduce the shipping costs of moving tar sand oil by rail to refineries in the Great Lakes region that were already refining it, and then to Texas refineries that were also already refining it.

So, yes, the US does refine tar sand at multiple refineries and has been doing it for quite a while.

Back then, the Leftist dilemma was the Koch brothers were big donators to PBS programming...I guess T-Bird is stuck in the Nineties.
Sort of like free ham to someone Jewish as the joke goes.

Yep it is the dotted line that connects to the original Keystone pipeline, the solid green line is the original , that has been in use for years, It was back in the Obama years the EPA told them if they would run the new XL pipeline next to the old one they would grant them the permits but Trans Canada pipeline co didn't want to do that wanted to put it where the dotted line is and the EPA said NO.
Oh and that green line that runs off to the right is part of the Original Keystone pipeline and has been there for years.
