AFTER 86 DAYS A TEMPORARY FIX - ON DAY 91 FURTHER EVIDENCE IT'S FAR FROM FIXED..........
The British Petroleum (BP) Oil Spill in the Gulf on April 20th, continues to devastate the environment and the economy of that region of the United States, it having taken the oil giant 86 days after this grevious occurrence to even temporarily cap the leak last week and now as of yesterday, Day 91, have reports made that there is once again seepage taking place. BP must take the American people for fools. This multi-national, multi-billion, dollar profit making corporation, whose own profit margins and incompetence are at the root of this economic and environmental calamity, should be severely fined, as well as held responsible for the entire cost of the clean-up and restoration to the Gulf region. And the Obama Administration, the Congress, and the American Judiciary must not only hold BP fully accountable, but also make the British Government responsible for holding British Petroleum's feet to the fire. To think that this mammoth oil corporation could intentionally forego investing in the necessary Research and Development to effectively solve the problems caused by an oil spill in a much more expeditious way, for forty years, is obscene. Where do the residents of the Gulf go to get back their jobs and livelihood, as well as their unpolluted waters and beaches, and an ecologically healthy fish and marine life from those waters ? How many more hours, days, weeks, months, years, will it take for the lieges of BP to wake up and provide not only for their personal profits, but the common good of society and God's Creation ? Snap to it BP, and let's get real and permanent solutions to this incredulously real and continuing 92 day tragedy..........In The Spirit of Justice, Fr. Troy
