I completely fail to understand some of the thinking here. We have a corporation which is criminally negligent in their practice from the very top on down. At every single step of the way, from the design of the well forward, the one and only thought was how to save money. They have a long, long track record along these lines, going back to that explosion at their refinery in Texas that killed 15 workers, as well as other crimes in Alaska. They spent $15 million in political donations last year (i.e. bribes) to be allowed to continue on their crime spree. They are now operating an even bigger and potentially more dangerous oil rig (the Atlantis) for which a BP whistle blower has reported that something like 90% of the mechanical drawings are either missing or inaccurate, meaning that if something goes wrong they won't know how to shut it down. (This rig pumps 100,000 barrels per day and is significantly deeper than the Deepwater Horizon.) The entire oil industry was able to so subvert the government regulatory body (the MMS) that they were allowed to self "regulate", meaning they've been doing whatever they please. Meanwhile, the cleanup crews are not given the safety equipment, most especially breathing equipment, that is needed. Some of them are told that if they want it, they must buy it themselves - this for workers who are being paid under $10 per hour.
And we are going to blame environmental "wackos"?
