>>"I pay taxes and expect my government to take care of this."

You expect too much. Try prayer...maybe Dog will take care of it. Government can't do everything. The government has no drilling rig crews on the payroll.<<

No I don't expect too much. The government should never have let them drill that deep as they had no response to a blow out. That seems pretty logical to me.

There are lots of things the government can do, like keeping their foot on BP's neck. Making sure they use the safeest dispersants, etc.

You are making a libertarian argument. I have seen you slam Ayn Rand too often to believe you think that way.
