  • thnaks for the report.

  • lol my uncle is the guy sleeping at 1:54

  • @tigerfedor Have you seen our trade deficit, unemployment rate and national debt? This great "world economy" thing doesn't appear to be working out too well for us.

  • I'm starting to find this a bit stupid whilst shifting blame onto BP the US government has done pretty much nothing, all the projects bieng made are funded by BP and the oil drilling company, whilst the US government complains it sits back and points fingers, now if it really caredf or its people would it not put money into saving its econmic structure where it really mattered? BP should be commended on its efforts of internal collapse to save the US coastline than appored by a mockory.

  • if this was a Chinese or Russian oil company, these cronies and hypocrites would not dare conduct a public flogging of a foreigner. They have the gall to ask if BP will pay for health care forever for any person sickened or affected by the spill. Meanwhile America's Bhopal India disaster has not paid out a penny., Fucking prick Americans. Also no mention of Halliburton and Transocean's role, both Americans. Hypocritical scum.

  • @87ocean The leadership on the platform was all BP. There were warning signs of high levels of pressure but BP made the decision to keep going.

    "Fucking Prick Americans" Who do you think buys all your shit? How about we do an economic blockade of everything British?  Your country would collapse economically. You need us much more than we need you scumbag.

  • @a3patriot Actually you'll find its Britain that buys off you, Britains main export is fish ... the over 90% of that goes into the EU, other exports are mainly to the EU itself so saying " How about we do an economic blockade of everything British?" would result in a tiny rise and Private sector collapse in the US when the EU blockades america with support of the "Commies" who are vying for revenge on everything US.

  • @Jam971  At least do some research... Google Economy_of_the_United_Kingdom

    Exports: United States 13.8%, Germany 11.5%, Netherlands 7.8%, France 7.6%, Ireland 7.5%, Belgium 5.3%, Spain 4.1% (2008)

  • @a3patriot so you'll find an overwhelming majority going to the EU correct?

    So I ahrdly think that the United kindoms Economy would collapse ... thought that was pretty obvious to my point.

    Untied states 13.8%

    EU countries 43.8

    Others 42.4%

  • @Jam971 Obviously you don't know much about economics if you don't think 13.8% is a large number. UK has a higher debt to GDP ratio than the US and is more socialistic than the US. If you unemployment rate went up by almost 14% the UK would be in worse shape than Greece because of the burden that would be placed on your government to pay benefits.

  • @a3patriot Although your lack of broader perception is worse than mine, a drop of 14% would mean a large decrease in the FTSE stock prices, this would infact collapse the UK's economy dragging the EU and US with it, countries are so realiant on one another in private companies that crushing one could crush the rest, you crush BP you crush the US economy at the same time, Cutting off your nose despite your face is not a great action plan.

  • it's dissapointing to see fox style non-professional journalistic commentary starting to affect even foreign media

  • don't regulate the free market, let the free market decide...so any free market corporations out there want to be paid to plug this oil spilll? ANy takers? Come on, let the market correct itself, any private enterprises want to freely take this one? Seeing that it is over 1 month since the oil spill and we're polluting this ocean like crazy, that it's disgusting me.

  • Comment removed

  • @dalecampbl7 I am a firm believer in the free market, that's why America has progressed as it has. However regulations on large companies like this whose activities can cause devastation like what has happened are not socialist ideas, but common sense. The self-interest of big oil companies clearly does not include protecting the environment in a big enough way seeing they did not put in the safety measures that might have prevented this.

  • Finally-perhaps this thing might get resolved. I am in the middle-clearly, this is on BP and, surprise, Halliburton! Can we all put down our attitudes and somehow make this a joint effort to clean and cap the thing while using human hair. If you know anyone in a beauty or barbershop, Google how to donate hair to suck up the oil with a natural source. If anyone you know anyone in the beauty buusiness, you can help! Let's try and make this thing right, this minute and point fingers later!
