You, sir or madam, need a little readjustment of your spine. It would seem your head is at the wrong end.

I grew up in oil country, and I know the danger that is inherent in all aspects of it. If you would read, research, study and question, you might not have such a narrow mind.

If you want oil at under $2.00 a gallon, I suggest you study about the North Slope, about shale oil exploration in the mountain west, and other areas that the liberals refuse to let us drill.

BP stands for British Petroleum, so how much incentive do you think they have for stopping a well that will damage the US? Shell oil is Dutch. Sinclair is American. Who do you buy your gasoline from?

So far BP’s company value has dropped by a minimum of 30 billion dollars, that’s “billion”, with a B. And the longer this goes on the more it will drop. I’d say that’s pretty good incentive to stop the leak.
