I realize that's a standard response from someone with such a binary view, but since you havent really demonstrated that you have a grasp on the subject, I dont know how much good trying to flesh out the concept to you would do.

While I wouldn't jump for joy to see BP fold, I'd have to say it's their own fault. Had they taking the proper safety measures and not tried to cut corners none of this would have happened.

My wife asked me during this tragedy what I thought was the difference between BP folding and GM's problems prior to receiving a gov't bailout. My reply: safety, lost of life and environmental damages.

Losing a few thousand jobs due to lofty or irresponsible business practices doesn't equate failure to not follow safety precedures which cost people their lives as well as their livelihood.

So, explain to us where BP ****ed things up.

I've yet to hear an answer to that question that wasn't sagging with Leftist talking points.

At the end of the day, it's never a good thing when someone loses their job. So much for the, "compassionate Liberal".
