yeah, it sucks

but we need oil so the best we can do is say shit happens and try to fix it.
 
our coast is so fucked


I fucking hate this shit.

it's sad too because I quit following it daily because it's so depressing. open the newspaper yesterday to see the latest big developement... there's no... it's still leaking.. they still dunno wtf to do
 
This. Michael Jackson was FRONT FUCKING NEWS for TWO FUCKING WEEKS. I haven't seen this story on the front cover of any news paper past the first few days. Any news outlet with a liberal agenda should be pushing this story every single day until its solved. They should be HOUNDING BP and exposing their laziness and cuts to maximize profits.
 
There are plenty of us who care, sadly there are plenty more who have the, "Well it's not MY backyard." mentality. Worse yet, there are those (on BOTH sides of the political spectrum) that would rather sit back and point fingers at each other.
 
I take it you have parted your car and taken everything you own that is made from plastic to the recycle center?
 
this really pissed me off, I love our local beaches, I cant imagine the the gulf coast states...
 
There's no way that drilling onshore could cause a disaster of this magnitude and any geyser of oil could be easily capped, as we've seen time and again in the Middle East.

For the third time, we have no business drilling that far offshore and that far down. The only reason we're there is because of the environmentalists and (possibly worse) the people that have the money to bitch about how they don't want to see oil rigs from their beach houses.
 
Just in case you didn't get the point, the point was this.

A commodity market means the supply is undifferentiated, and it doesn't matter who you buy it from it's going to affect the demand and the price, so it's impossible to boycott BPs oil specifically.
 
well, if anyone DOES want to help in the area:
