I am more and more of the opinion that they should have nuked it.  Can't get much worse, why the fuck not.

  This is my fuck everything face.

I still think that a government should be able to at least TRY and deal with disasters like these.

what if you already have a good deal of resources located else where like say Haiti

Yesterday on the news over my delicious gyro at a tiny happy Greek place here in Providence, I overheard that the US is looking into criminal charges against BP. I haven't looked for the source yet...but I can't think of a better way for America to get out of debt than to sue the pants off of a foreign oil corporation.

[Pope Pixie Pickle]

Add a class action from all the people who lost income from
the spill, cos BP shareholders are international, they're only really registered in the UK as a corporation.

Besides with the epic cuts in public spending since the general election the Tory/liberal govt won't do shit.

If the government has something in Haiti that would help them plug up the hole, they are seriously, seriously doing it very, very wrong.

I was thinking that maybe the Haiti earthquake, the Chile earthquake, and this oil disaster, are all down to ?????? trying to calibrate those H.A.A.R.P Arrays. But then I thought, "Nah, that would be crazy" and put the hat back on.

[Cramulus]

the US getting out of its gigantic debt by fining and prosecuting big business oil companies?

I have to admit that pushes the horrormirth needle over to the "just funny" side


thank gawdess we live in such a litigious country, eh?

So the Space Shuttle Atlantis just made its last flight to space.  Seal the fucker, turn it into a submarine, and then you got that long space-arm deal to fix the leak. 

[Sir Squid Diddimus]

We can have our space men fix it!
Send in the space men!!


I love the space men

Oh no sausage-dolphin and dead jelly.

I think i figured out who made the leak happen in the first place.
US govt needs money, BP has money.
US sues BP, gets lots of money and massive public support for more limits on corporations.
Who knows? maybe this will lead to a lessening of corporate power.
