DOJ Blows It With BP: Taxpayers Will Pay for Deepwater Horizon Cleanup

[GoLeft TV]

BP now must pay over $20 million in fines for the damages caused by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. But much of that money is going to come right of your pockets. Ring of Fire’s Mike Papantonio and Farron Cousins discuss this.

4. In a Fascist nation I never expected anything else.

We The People are now responsible for the actions of corporations and high end criminals.

2. BP------------------should have been barred from this country.....................

and I'm getting pretty sick and tired of paying for corporation malfeasance, and then to top it all off they get a tax break----------just like the Kochs get a tax break to set up non-profits to gut the American democracy with foundation front groups.
Then they get to go and recoup a tax break for the crap they caused, hell if I were to try this I would be in god damn jail.
If I spill gasoline or antifreeze into a storm drain at my home or for that matter at a gas station I am held accountable for god sake's, this is just beyond words, this is just disgusting, I still will not eat shrimp caught in the gulf, or any fish, because of the carcinogens in the fish.

And now it was being reported that the well head cap that was installed is leaking, or some other well head, because the cement, has problems----------------------this is just amazing



Nice legacy, what we need is a revolution ......................... .

its important, how this "stuff" keeps repeating itself throughout history---------------same thing in Vietnam, Iraq, basic play book, and you can see it in the history of this country------------------it's always in the concept of "who" initiated the Manifest Destiny, or the Doctrine of Discovery---------------and there application around the world---------------------that's what I see and read all the time, their just a different printed headlines
