READ THIS: Dick Cheney's deregulation agenda is the real (underlying) reason / cause behind the US oil spill by British Petroleum (BP) in 2010 off the coast of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. Deregulation coupled with lax government oversight (lackies appointed by Dick Cheney at the helm) lead to the omission of key safety features and protocols, a free pass for drilling licenses, emphasis on profit over safety, and absolutely NO PLAN for containment of blowouts. In addition, the courts in the Gulf States, are completely stacked with Republican appointees (like Feldman) with major investments in or connections with BIG OIL (see last paragraph).

For example, George W Bush and Dick Cheney helped block a 2002/03 Bill that would have required the use of acoustic switches as a means to activate the blowout preventer (BOP).
Also, BP did not want to lose an oil well (by activating the BOP); this would have cost them future profit in addition to the costs for exploration and preparation of the well. This is most evident when you look at attempts in the first month and a half: all of the post-blowout efforts have been focused on SAVING the well; it was only after more than a month before BP attempted "TOPKILL", which would have sealed the well.
Lastly, US District Judge Martin Feldman, who overturned the temporary drilling ban on June 22, owns investments in Ocean Energy (Houston-based), Quicksilver Resources, Prospect Energy, Peabody Energy, Halliburton, Pengrowth Energy Trust, Atlas Energy Resources, Parker Drilling and others. Feldman is also a REAGAN appointee, in 1983. Conflict of interest or institutional corporate control over public policy?
Any more doubts about who runs America? Hint: its not you, the citizens of America. Drill Baby, Drill! Spill Baby, Spill. Now, clean it the fock up!

If you want a better world where Western Rationalism is used by Western civilization to solve our common problems - we need to get away from oil & from the excepted practice of Central Banking & Banking sectors - this does not mean a return to a gold standard - that would be as bad as the petro-dollar standard. Exxon-Haliburton, the Saudi & Binladen Crime families & a host of other rouge states & crime factions -feed off oil.
US EU & Japan must get Fusion energy to starve organized crime/terror.

This is a great news story about deregulation!
Something has to be understood about the Gulf of Mexico is that the oil operation that caused the spill was under-lease from BP by Exxon-mobile - who obviously as a competitor are not going to advertize that fact to the US media & public - Exxon the firm that is culpable for the Exxon Vadez oil disaster in Alaska & it was Exxon with its sister firm Haliburton who lobbied for the Iraq war before 9/11. Exxon-haliburton are a cancer in US body politic

The evil powers that be decided to drill down into the side of a deep sea Volcano and what we saw was TAR, GASSES, SILT and a lot of drama and power of suggestion. People were not allowed in the vicinity and were not allowed to take photo's. But there was no oil spill.....they dumped some oil crap around the coastlines here and there and threw some dead fish and birds in amongst it all. MOP UP immediate afterwards was easy...and they get one step closer to their goal...total control of OIL!
