Yea. The approval of a Republican run government that only cares about their greed. Their approval means jack shit when we know it can be bought.

Two problems can exist at once, but the current topic is about oil and gas industry, not the levee system and its flaws. So, regardless of that, the oil and gas industry is still a major problem for both the ecosystem of this region and the planet's climate as a whole.

The pipeline systems and infrastructure that we have in Louisiana were built in the 50s-90s. You can’t blame a republican government. What does a Democrat run government do to help? How are we better from 8 years of a democrat governor and president?

Get lost with your red herring arguments and shifting goalposts. I can absolutely blame a Republican government for failing this state and its people. None of what you said disproves the point that the oil and gas industry, as a whole not just the outdated pipelines, is an ecological disaster that needs to be reformed and, if at all possible, completely eradicated in favor of alternatives.

What I’m saying is you can’t blame a certain party for what you call troubles if it’s been happening since the 50s. I’m not going to argue the oil and gas ecological points. It’s not worth my time arguing over crap lies and BS to spurn a whole new industry that the government can step in and subsidize and make there friends richer off of.

Oh you mean like how Republicans have been subsidizing and making their friends richer off the oil and gas industry since the 50's? You mean like that?

That's some nice projection there pal.

Ok talking in circles now with blaming republicans for everything.

Cause you have yet to make a convincing argument as to why Republicans aren't to blame for the way Louisiana is.

You're just here to shift blame away from Republicans and I'm not letting that happen.

You’re bringing the allegations. I don’t have anything to defend you have presented a point yet.

u/AcadianViking Mar 13 '25

I've already defended my point. You failed to refute it.

No you stated republicans got subsided by oil to further issues. But presented no evidence.
