What a lot of these energy hype pieces don't tell you is that a majority of what is being produced here, or planned on being produced, is for off shore sales, not for US public consumption. Investors again have taken control and are not telling the whole truth. Keystone pipeline is to get to a refinery that will ship overseas not over the country which is why hedge funds, commodities gamblers, investment bankers, and other thieves want it so bad.

I found this artcle on NBC news http://www.nbcnews.com/business/economywatch/us-fast-track-energy-independence-report-suggests-1C8344034. It discussed how US energy production was growing rapidly and also mention, if only briefly, its impact on the railroads. The articel said there was a shortage of both tank and hopper cars that was problematic.
