No, what I am saying is that they need to clean up the gulf better than they are doing. Nothing more. I am saying I believe PBS and MSNBC more than BP. And they are reporting a disaster. The oil industry is an easy target. The media is taking advantage of that fact. They are using BP as a punching bag and no one is going to object. I am embarrassed to watch A. Cooper. The truth iss there is no clean up that would be good enough because its the oil industry. We start with that as a given. The only way to deal with oil shortages is on the macro scale ie high oil prices. YOu want us to use a micro approach which humans will not follow if not forced. Yes within reason. If you jump up gas taxes 300%, you will kill the economy. And we need, as a society to start listening to the scientists and get rid of this idea that thinking is some sort of elitist activity. Everyone should and could be thinking. Well then people who are upset about the spill need to start thinking. I don't see much of thaton their side. Every time I try to communicate with Scott, he throws another article at me. Its ridiculous. Someone apparently, has to say that, because there are sure a of of people not doing it.-lol! Yes, on both sides.....in fact, at this point, I would say the oil industry is doing more thinking that its opponents.
