1. They just don't get it do they?

"“What the hell did we do to deserve this?”"

I don't know maybe fight against regulations that would have required more safety equipment and backup emergency valves which could have prevented this.

The irony is if BP and other oil lobbyist had lost and govt had required a higher level of safety & redundancy it might have saved them billions.

Too stupid to see more than one quarter in front of them.

Safe rig = rig not on bottom of ocean = profitable rig.
