Because god forbid we have socialist government strict regulation or takeover of private business.

Even if that private business makes it's money off the resources owned collectively by all Americans, even if that private business can ruin part of the United States forever, and even if that private business can ruin the lives and businesess of millions of American citizens.

I suppose captialism caused Chernobyl as well?

I don't know anything about oil rigs (as a matter of fact there is only one poster that I know of that has ever stepped foot on one) but this seemed to be an accident. People who are proclaiming that stricter govt regulation could have prevented this are guessing as well. Acting as if BP didn't care that this happened is beyond idiotic. Everyone is monday morning quarterbacking this deal now and taking away our rights because of an accident regardless of how devastating the results are is a dangerous path. Naturally these same people (Riot) champion the rights of terrorists yet seem willing to handover private business to the govt.

Uh ok...
