If you're going to argue about this oil spill, here's a few things to consider:
1. It has been DOCUMENTED by BP (and Halliburton) employees, mainly the workers on the rig, that they new that the rig was going to fail. It almost seems that certain people in BP's upper echelon wanted this thing to collapse.
2. The coast guard is not allowing the states to do any type of cleanup effort to prohibit the oil contaminating their coastlines and freshwater bodies. They are also suppressing local media coverage of the "cleanup effort" going on in the gulf. BP will also terminate any contract with fishing vessels if their personnel are wearing proper PPE needed for the cleanup, ie. respirators, gloves, suits.
3. Weeks before the oil spill, Goldman Sachs sold 44% of its BP stock.
4. Weeks before the oil spill, Halliburton bough a company by the name of Boots & Coots, which specializes in prevention and risk-control services for oil and gas-well fires and blowouts, knowing that BP would contract them for the cleanup.
5. The queen of England owns the biggest majority of BP stock.
The most important:
After Obama's address, his administration revived in the house and senate certain legistlation that is meant to enslave and control people: THE CARBON TAX. If any of this Carbon Tax legislation gets approved, it will give the global elite control of the one element that all other life is based on: Carbon. This failed when all the Climategate articles surfaced that scientists were falsifying documents to prove global warming was true, now all of a sudden it's back on the table.
Isn't it always funny how there's always some tragic explosion before legislation is on the table to take away our freedoms? Kind of deja vu when you think about a big explosion in 2001 that expedited the passing of the Patriot Act and the invasion of two countries.
Think about it, do some research, and stop believing the bullshit you see on the mainstream media.
