  I usually do, until I run into lyers and people who make jokes out of things that are not funny at all.  You could make a joke of of a plane crash of children and how a person got sick when pick up what he thought was a baby dolls arm and it was a real one.

                                        ARE YOU READY FOR SOME REAL BAD NEWS!

   Saturday morning at 9:05 on CNN Live.  Ronnie Deutch Tax Expert gave out some bad news.  She states we are going to get to pay for this oil spill whether we want to or not. :yes:

  Right now all oil companies have to pay 8 cents per barrel of oil into a oil distaster relief fund. Congress is going to raise that to 41 cents per barrel.  As you know corporations don't pay taxes on a barrel of oil, they will pass it on to us.  This alone will raise the price of oil 1 dollar per gallon. :yes:

   Also did you know that a company even if it is criminally negligent it can deduct it as a business expense.  :yes: Just  think it could cost BP from 20 billion to 100 Billion dollars to clean up their mess and get a tax deduction.  :yes: For every 20 Billion they spend means that they don't have to pay the IRS 4 billion dollars.   :yes: For a 100 Billion business expense will cost our government  20 Billion dollars in tax dollars we won't get and we are all ready broke. :yes:

   Also because of BP's oil spill and the cost to the taxpayers, it going to raise the cost of living, food and energy cost 10% to 20%. :yes:

   Isn't it wonderful how these Republicans who worship the Predatory Capitalist and their corporations.  Want to get rid of government and all regulations that control these predatory corporations.  They operate law free and you see what it got us.   Isn't wonderful how we get to share in the Republican's worship of free range, no control Capitalism has affected us and America.  :icon_evil:  :yes:

  There is more interesting information.  BP owns NO might is say again. BP owns NO filling stations.  These stations are own by private owners.   They buy the right to use the BP name and these are long contracts and can't be gotten out of easily.  They buy their gas from the local refineries.  So if you think your hurting BP by boycotting BP stations you are wrong.  Your hurting small American business people.  This like all of the stations in Indianapolis buy their gas from Rock Island Refinery from one pipe line. 

The Troll :flag: :rain1:  :flag:  :rain2: :flag:  :rain1:  :flag:  :rain2:




  I wonder how the lovers and the defender of Super Large World Corporations are going to defend the actions.

That has got to be one of the most ridiculous decisions I have ever seen in my entire lifetime. When this happens again what are we going to do? When we get a second or third incident before we even have the first one addressed, or know what caused it, what is going to happen?

This judge needs his/her ass kicked!  :mad:

Drilling isn't going to stop.  The idled rigs will be moved to Brazil and put back into operation so the threat will still be there.

No. . . not with all that unrest and Chavez in the region. . . And besides, if they do they will not be tapping our resources. . .

  I don't mind them drilling, I only want it SAFE.  I want more than just one, excellent Blow Out Preventers and I don't want the corporations cutting corners.  They still make money and be safe.  And I sure want them to have a excellent plan "B".   And a plan "C".
