I am not happy that the title of this thread has proven true. (Posted 5 days ago)
The volume of oil now admitted by various Government agencies and BP .....is beyond, way beyond the original statements of 5000 barrels per day.
That the chemicals used are way too toxic and never should have been approved by the EPA. (easily looked up way before approval....on line)
I have read on many web sites that the various "solutions" to stop the leak were impossible and that they were "leaked" to stem the tide of anger at BP.
That the Wetlands of Louisinana are now being besieged by "under water plumes"....not containable by miles of orange oil containment balloons despite everyone's best efforts.
That a study done and released from the North Sea on oil blowouts was ignorned from 10 years ago (also available on line) from the very country where one of these businesses originate.
That Fema, the Coast Guard, and MMS.....answer to and swallow anything BP says.
That the United States Government seems to have no control of it's own waters, and let foreign countries come in and rape us of our precious minerals with little to know payment.
That there is typical red tape from some moron picking his or her nose at a desk and not signing off so that berms could have been built 2 weeks ago to save the wetlands now being saturated with chocolate pudding type oil.
Yes our government hard at work,..... the new administration, looking more like the old administration.
