It seems like there should be someone in charge...you know someone who could make an executive decision and get this shit fixed.


I wish this country had someone like that.
 
Some mystical magical person who would inspire hope and bring change to this great nation of ours...
 
probably because agitators like rush limbaugh started assigning blame first and fastest.
 
sounds like the govt failed to do it's job then. Since the govt inspects these wells on a regular basis.
 
ya but i had my mexican servant deliver it by foot. It should have gotten to you by just now.
 
no.. the issue is rand paul comes off like the president is making too much of a big deal about blaming some the people responsible for:

1. 11 people killed
2. the danger to the environment
3. the negative impact to scores of small businesses in that region
4. the potential negative impact on the people who'll come into contact with all that toxic shit in trying to clean it up.

Don't think there won't be a rise of illnesses (a lot of them long term) due to fishermen turning into makeshift hazmat workers in an effort to clean up the shit BP, Halliburton, TransOcean and gov't caused.

And all of that could have been avoided. To say that coming down on those businesses directly responsible is "unamerican" and "accidents happen" isn't just a rookie running off at the mouth mistake. Its the stupidest thing he's said so far.

And the scary part is..he's just started.
 
So they purposely wanted the oil to leak? If they did then it wasn't an accident. If they didn't, IT'S AN ACCIDENT. An unfortunate one yes, but still an accident.
 
true, it's their well. Their responsibility.

BUT when the govt steps in and assumes the role of overwatcher, and they fail to do the job. All that blame can also go onto the govt. A company has the idea to cut costs by skirting the line. Govt is supposed to say no. They didn't.

either the regulations aren't enough, or the govt organization is bullshit and can't do the job.
