Oil in the Gulf of Mexico!

[Shell B]

Yes, crude oil is best left far underground. Were it not for the money involved, it would be obsolete. There is absolutely no good reason we should be drilling anywhere. That being said, I can hardly change what is happening. I can be pissed about it, however. First, they have a faulty shut off mechanism that only closes over half way. Then, they use chemical dispersants deeper than they ever have before. Why? So the oil will be broken up. What does that do? It makes it so the big animals, that we can see, aren't covered in oil. Don't worry, though, we'll get to watch them die slowly from being poisoned by the oil or from losing their sources of food. Smaller bits of oil will affect plankton and plant life. Yipee! I love that people are concerned about the fact that we can't fish there now, when it is likely that there will be hardly any fish left in the future. Drill, baby, drill? Fuck this shit.
