BIG difference between the federal govt. (small and unobtrusive) of the early part of the 1900's and the over-reaching, over-controlling, over-regulating monstrosity that exists today.
NONE of those projects would even be allowed to be built today because of the governments own regulations. (witness the keystone pipeline)
