BP Gives Up

They have tens of billions in greenbacks that say otherwise. What? You think Obama is going to have the votes to change the current laws and punish BP retroactively?

Yeah right. Like anything is going to change in Washington. Just a bunch of cons who like B.S.ing in front of the camera.

Surely the stock price wouldn't make sense then. You should load up. A lot of sellers seem to disagree.

They are balking over a 50% dividend cut and panicking.

We'll see how things are in two years.

And all of the retirees in Great Britain that depend on BP for their pensions.

The world is already on the brink, overreaction is going to be for the cameras only. The real work is getting the spill stopped and planting coke on Lindsey Lohan to divert the masses.

No need to plant it.

A huge celebrity will probably die right about the time the replacement well is in place. Watch for it.

Capitalistic free enterprise created this disaster, and I guess we'll wait for capitalistic free enterprise to contain it.

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.

Then I trust, in retrospect, that you are equally outraged at the selling out of America with the acts that set this catastrophe in motion.

When Clinton allowed as you say, "the resources owned collectively by all Americans", to be pilaged while arbitrarily waving royalty fees rightfully due to Americans. Giving big oil companies our resources for free thereby igniting 'a deep sea oil rush' that in turn harmed American citizens. Ladies and Gentlemen we have witnessed a major FUBAR capable of being performed by only the likes of a Bill Clinton or Al Gore. Then again he does feel our pain.

So the cause of the spill was capitalism? No reach there. Nothing like turning this mess into a reason to peddle your agenda. Kudos

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...
