And if Obama had done his job with MMS, BP might have been more regulated.

And FReepers would have criticized him for it.

Uhhh, no. I don’t know ANY Freepers that want no government regulations on oil rigs. Maybe not more REGULATIONS, but certainly to uphold the ones in place!

However BP was given complete free rides to do anything they liked which gave way to shortcuts in the name of making money. Now maybe some Freepers are slaves to stocks and dividends, but most of us aren’t.

Banking is heavily regulated. Stocks are heavily regulated. Real estate is heavily regulated. Oil is heavily regulated. But even with all this regulating, and with congress and huge federal bureaucracies “overseeing” them they’re all crashing and burning and in crisis mode. We don’t need more regulations. We need less government, more efficiency and more responsibility.

In short, we need a 100% turnover in government. Throw the bums out!!

Rebellion is brewing!!
