The Oil Spill and BP

More than 50 thousand barrels of oil per day. The ecological damage, the wild life lost, the ugly black stain...in the gulf of mexico. Far away from where i live. Bit closer to the u.s, but not close enough to feel the real impact. The people living in the Florida coast, new Orleans coast will. Telethons are being made for "the cause", cleaning the mess of a multi billion dollar business. BP, british petroleum, the fourth largest company in the world, of course they need the telethons. Just ask south africans, they know all about BP's problems. But that would be for another blog.

Obama said he was going to "whoop some ass" , lol, i dont know if those where the exact words, but it was close. So, he was going to whoop some ass, he had a meeting with carl henric svanberg, bp's chairman. After the meeting, there was a deal that bp would give a 20billion dollar fund for the restoration and help and blah...change money, for bp, just change money. Days later, mr carl was on some yacht race , sipping 40 year old whiskey with all his rich buddies, far far away from that godawful foul smelling "accident".

Some kid appears on fox news, he has the answer to put a stop to the spill, he and his dad and their science project, james cameron is pissed cuz he wasnt considered for his submarine experience. BP doesnt need help, they are viewing "all the best options". Obama is pissed, americans are pissed, the rest of the world is pissed. and the oil keeps going out.

Do you know how oil speculations and oil prices work? there was a very good comercial here, about a bank that gave you gallons of oil each time you used their credit cards. The commercial showed some arab sheik, having coffee, with a small screen in a corner, where you could see the oil price per liter. The sheik then spills (oh, the irony) some coffee on his white sheik thobe, he gets pissed, starts calling out for his mum, crying "dirrty, diiirrrty!" and..the oil price starts to go up on the little bottom screen. The bank assured you oil at a certain price, no matter what happened in the other side of the world. Like: "The price of oil is reaching historic prices for the fear of new outcomes in the arab peninsula" "the gallon of oil will rise 12% this week, due to the fall of the asian market stocks" etcetc.

Here's a future headline: "BP managed to control the oil spill in the gulf of mexico and successfully cleaned 40% of the affected area, which had a cost of 100 billion dollars. In a related topic, oil price will go rocket high due to the operation cost of the cleaning operation by BP and the huge lost of the oil reserve in the gulf of mexico".

You know what i want to see? i want to see mr carl henric in shorts and rubber flip flops cleaning pelicans with a tooth brush, 24/7. I want to see BP really trying to fix the fucking problem. BP is dirty, its allways been dirty.
