More Governement Needed!!!

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_gulf_oil_spill


Less Government is good I guess, only until you want More Government!


I guess you got to blame somebody and no one dares blame the one most responsible....

Re: More Governement Needed!!!

What a mess. Limbaugh wants to blame enviromentalists for forcing oil drilling far offshore and thus more dangerous. Ludicrous. Greed is to blame. Republicans are blocking the liability limits of oil companies from being raised from 75 million. We know who republicans stand for. Big oil, Big business and Big money. Hypocrites! should be tarred and feathered.

More calls for the government to "push BP out of the way".


Interesting, to say the least.


Even more interesting is the fact that so many of these folks are not calling on their State governments for more action. They are indeed calling on the Federal government for more action.


Whatever....

Re: More Governement Needed!!!

This just shows how inept the government is

Quote:
The U.S. government threatened to remove BP from efforts to seal a blown-out oil well in the Gulf of Mexico if it doesn't do enough to stop the leak, though it acknowledged only the company and the oil industry have the know-how to halt the deepwater spill.

Re: More Governement Needed!!!

This study proves crude oil is fatal for most plants, but not all.

http://www.idosi.org/aejsr/3(1)08/13.pdf


So it is not a lie to say that crude oil is nutritious.

However, anyone with half a brain knows that crude oil is toxic to humans and the environment, in most situations.

Who are among the chief stock holders in the Exxon Corp? That's right, the Kennedy family. Seems Joe Kennedy laundered a lot of his illicit funds through a trust to buy a stake in the old Standard Oil that became Exxon. Senator John Forbes Kerry (D-MA) is also a big Exxon stock holder.

Before you slam the "big oil companies" consider this: The Government income (taxes and fees) from a gallon of gas that you buy at the pump is 7 times the amount that the oil companies see in profit from that same gallon.

http://www.tulsatoday.com/index.php?...d=766&Itemid=2

The oil industry is really just another back channel to feed more of our hard earned dollars into the trough that the politicians feed from. And it is a fact - for the entire "automotive age" in America, the Democrats have been the party in power (with a brief two year interval during the Eisenhower admin and another during GWB's first term). Other than those briefest of gaps, the Dems have been the ones writing all of our laws and the regulations for the oil industry.

If you don't like the way the heavily regulated oil industry has developed you have only one party to blame. The Dems.
