“That is what they do.” Yeah, and they’re so careful about it, too - NOT. They would rather try these half-a$$ed systems designed to “capture” the flow so they can market it, even if it means letting the environment of the Gulf be destroyed. But hey, they don’t care about American beaches - they’re British! (Or are they based in Switzerland now?)
These guys have been lying sacks of it since BEFORE this blow-out - their entire application was studded with more falsehoods than a Christmas ham is studded with cloves.
“Oh and who cares anyway?” Try the residents of every seaboard state from Louisiana to Maine.
Learn to read. The “who cares” comment was directed to the flow of oil in the leak. BP is trying to stop the leak and capture as much of the oil as they can. In their business they would be trying to end this quickly regardless of the flow. That is how they stay in business. In the oil business, greed is the primary motivator and they don’t make money on oil that washes up on beaches. That is a good thing.
