I just got off the phone doing an automated survey conducted by Consumer Energy Alliance. It was really in support of the Keystone pipeline.
So of course I participated. Do I think gas prices are too high? Why, yes I do. Do I think unemployment is too high? Of course I do. Then there was a long spiel about how this pipeline will create thousands of jobs in the U.S. and not too much on lowering gas prices. Apparently, the government is accepting comments and petitions regarding the permitting of this pipeline. Then the people behind Consumer Energy Alliance wanted to know if they could add me to their petition. A firm NO on that. Am I over 50 years old? Darn it, I am. Am I male? Why, no, I am not. And that was the end of the survey.
I just wanted to let you that this survey was going on. We know they have the money and the astro turf groups to try to sway public opinion. Now, I am giving you the questions in advance so good luck on the quiz.
