Get Out of the Way, Says the Guy Who Wants You to Pay for It
Read more . . . →Yesterday Danielle Smith and Mark Carney rolled out a bitumen pipeline from Bruderheim, Alberta down to the BC coast — a line that’ll run somewhere between $35 and $44 billion depending on which contingency number you believe.

One problem....

PECO Made $814 Million. Its Workers Are Striking on the Fourth of July.
Read more . . . →For the first time in more than a hundred years, the people who keep the lights on in Philadelphia are walking off the job. At 12:01 AM on July 4, roughly 1,600 PECO workers — the linemen and gas techs who climb the poles in the storms you’re hiding from — go on strike. They’re not asking for a yacht.
