Get real: We went to WAR(s) at the behest of Big Oil (repost) |
|
Our government is Big Oil's lackey
from way back, when there was a Shah in Iran, Big Oil has been directing our government policy in the world.
so, get real, there is no way the dog is going to bite it's owner. Big Oil will not have to pay for the oil spill, anymore than they had to pay for Iraq. Oh sure, remember, they LIED to us and said oil revenues would foot the bill for the Iraq invasion, but that never happened.
Always the taxpayer, always us, have always funded big oil's wet dreams.
It doesn't matter who is currently president, or how "angry" they tone their speeches... we are owned by big oil and there is no way they are ever really going to get into any trouble of any consequence once this is all said and done.
gulf sea life, and in fact the entire environment is nothing to these guys.
sorry, but it had to be said. Its unfortunate, but its true. All the terrorism, all the wars and all the coups in the last half century at least can be traced back to Big Oil interests or reactions to the hegemony of Big Oil interests.
The ONLY way we can stop this stranglehold is to eliminate COMPLETELY the need for oil.

2. It goes back farther than that |

WW2 was about control of oil and other natural resources. We had it and Germany and Japan wanted it.When the Axis powers tried to take the resources we slapped them down big time.
