Beyond Petroleum must be the most wreckful company on the face of the planet.
First they get lazy and use only one BOP rather then two.
Next they are too cheap to fund any real cleanup. Then they pay the american government to downplay everything and the usa government more-or-less is
forced to comply. They use corexit which in most countries is correctly banned for its high toxicity factor. It was all about their public image, as
indeed that is the case in capitalism and especially with big business; they didn't want to sink the company anymore then what is absolutely
necessary.
I have ALWAYS been a STAUNCH PROPENT of NATIONALISED HEAVY INDUSTRY and nationalised banking. Some things do NOT accept profit over safety. Oil and
gas drilling, nuclear power reactors, airlines, railroads, shipping SHOULD be nationalised and the sooner the better. If BP actually stood for
British Petroleum, like it used to, do you honestly think this horrible accident would have happened OR they would be taking all these shortcuts? I
think not!
Come on citizens have some #ing pride in your nation. The privatisation ALL happened during the bush-reagan era in america and the thatcher era in
the uk. I hate these evil clowns with a tremendous passion: almost joseph stalin like!
