    The human cost of the Keystone XL Pipeline includes rape, spying, and FBI visits

    The Keystone XL Pipeline may well be one of the hottest topics in political buzz right now. Two countries are in the ring. That means two sets of politics, two economies, one set of voters for every politician that is buzzing about it, all happening on one Earth. And the people listening to the buzzing seem to be more confused than ever. Why? Every person talking about it seems to have a different story. And in politics, this means, somebody isn’t telling the truth. As the politics begin to crank up on this topic, more and more truths about the Keystone XL Pipeline are coming to light. What these truths are revealing are that the human cost to the Keystone XL Pipeline is already much higher than the higher ups want to talk about. Those costs are high today, and are expected to escalate in the future. Vice News reported on May 14 that one of the human costs of the Keystone XL pipeline includes seemingly unwarranted visits from the FBI on pipeline opponents. We are also learning of additional human costs that, mainly Americans, will have to pay once construction on the project begins. Those human costs include rape, sex trafficking, and violence according to a Pacific Standard report May 14.
