Update This post is; a re-write, with even more info and links.
I had originally posted this; together, with my other, Labor Day/Union Diary. Attracting, an irate commenter (a troll. This commenter; is also trolling, everyone’s, Support For, Standing Rock Sioux, Diaries. I see one of his troll friends; even wrote their own diary on the subject, (pro) as I suggested to them, when, he trolled me. When you see one troll, always expect more. They like to, travel in groups),
He tried to bring the Unions into this. Repeatedly; saying, that, I was, implying, Unions were in Solidarity with, The Standing Rock Sioux "Protectors."
Telling total lies; about, all, the (“supposed”), many, Union jobs available.
I researched and read about; these pipeline jobs, years ago, when Jersey City’s, Mayor Healy and everyone was, fighting the, Spectra pipeline in JC/NYC. No drinking water was traversed here, though.
These; “Energy Companies”, bring, their own, trained workers.
There might be; a few thousand, temporary, construction jobs, throughout, all, the States, not, just in North and South Dakota (to say otherwise; is, misleading). After that, very few, pipeline jobs. Then; its just a couple of hundred, maintenance jobs. Again; will need, highly-trained workers.
I told this negative, insistent; commenter, Yeah, Unions want jobs.
Good paying; permanent, jobs! I also told him that, “he, doesn’t speak for any Union.”
The job-promise, thing, it’s a scam. The troll/commenter, got angry, when I told him that. He knows, I’m telling the truth.
Now; not only, do I support Standing Rock Sioux.
But; I totally, know they’re correct in what they’re saying and doing here!
So, I worked harder, to make this Diary, better and more detailed.
I also; did, even, more research, on these pipeline companies.

Somebody’s making, a lot of money. Not, Union Workers.
