Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill 2010 – BP Corporate Greed Wins!

Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill 2010 - BP Corporate Greed Wins!

Ever since the oil started spilling into the Gulf of Mexico after the rig Deepwater Horizon exploded on April 20, 2010, BP has been lying to people. At first they said that around 1,000 gallons of oils leaks into the sea every day, then it was 5,000 gallons a day and then the underwater video of the pipe gushing oil into Gulf of Mexico was posted on the internet and everyone with half a brain could see that the estimates were purposefully low. There are several litres of oil that get spewed into the sea every second. It’s a disastrous amount, definitely more than 5,000 gallons a day (see video below).

BP now claims that they are capturing about 5,000 gallons of oil from the leaking pipe every day. This basically proves that their initial estimates were way off and didn’t reflect the reality. But the most shocking fact about BP’s efforts is that instead of stopping the leak to prevent this ecological disaster from continuing, they focused on salvaging as much of the wasting oil as possible. As it always goes, none of the mainstream media picked up on it. It took me, the blogger to point the finger and say the truth out loud.

BP’s corporate greed won. In the name of preventing the ecological disaster, they are doing their darnest to capture as much of the leaking oil as possible because each litre captured is money in their pocket. And it makes them look like they are doing something for the environment now that poop has already hit the fan. Look at it this way:

The very last interest of any oil conglomerate is the environment. Why would it be otherwise? Carbon footprint of the modern civilization exists because oil companies make sure we are dependent on their source of wealth. It is natural that non oil dependent, environment friendly solutions endanger their positions. Oil companies make so much money selling oil, they can easily afford to lobby against and boycott production of electric cars, halt implementation of maglev trains and put a plug on every other means of sustainable transportation or production of energy. Their corporate greed has been on the win side since the first oil well was drilled and is now as strong as ever. And we’re supposed to believe that efforts put into containing the Gulf of Mexico oil spill by BP are environment focused? Forget it – they are solely and strictly profit focused. BP is doing everything to make the most out of the disaster hence the efforts to capture as much of the leaking oil as possible before any other efforts.

The scary part is that Hurricane season will start in the Caribbean soon. Too much oil has already been spilled and continues being spilled every day, but when hurricanes come and start stirring the seas, creating huge waves that will hammer the shorelines and halt all efforts to stop the spill, then we could see the oil affecting much broader a landmass than imaginable. Meanwhile, the corporate greed of oil companies continues to grow as fast as the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

Boeing 787 Dreamliner First Take Off and Flight Video

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Big deal is being made out of the take off and first flight of new Boeing 787 Dreamliner plane. The video of both the take off and the flight has just been released and is posted above so watch how insanely ordinary and plain it looks. People are cheering like this is the first time a plane took off. Big deal!

This virgin flight of new Boeing 787 Dreamliner was being put off for almost two and a half years. Boeing’s stock is going up as claims that 787 Dreamliner is the new wave of travel keep coming up. Boeing 787 Dreamliner is said to be way more fuel efficient than its predecessors. This will allow for longer flights without refueling and that’s what experts refer to as a revolution in modern aviation.

After this first flight, Boeing 787 Dreamliner will be tested and re-tested for several months to make sure it is suitable for commercial travel. It is made of titanium and carbon making it significantly lighter than other available planes so it needs to be thoroughly tested to ensure its suitability as commercial air carrier. Watch the video of the most boring take off and first flight of Boeing 787 Dreamliner above.

BTW, do you know what future of commersian (and personal) travel should look like? MagLev (Magnetic Levitation). It’s much faster than any Boeing 787 Dreamliner, it’s much quieter than any Boeing 787 Dreamliner and it doesn’t burn any fossil fuels hence it’s completely and entirely environment friendly. All Maglev trains need is electricity which can be produced from renewable sources which would help preserve our planet. But that’s not what oil magnates want. Environmentally friendly solutions mean end of their larger than life lifestyles. The technology to develop MagLev trains is there. Heck, these trains have existed for years. Money and brains that went into development of Boeing 787 Dreamliner should have gone to the development of MagLev technologies and infrastructure and we’d be way ahead of ourselves. But then we wouldn’t need gasoline and that’s the end of income for oil companies…

Alan Greenspan – This War Is All About The Oil!

Monday, September 17th, 2007

Alan Greenspan

It looks like oil and arms industries are laughing at the rest of the US economy, which seems to be going in to the shitter. And now, once again, in the middle of this ruckus comes another former high rank US Fed with a book. Alan Greenspan is a former boss of US Federal Reserve who served his post for 18 years. According to Greenspan – “oil was the primary motive for the Iraq war” – what a discovery…

Alan Greenspan is now looking to cash in with his unbelievable discovery by releasing a book which he entitled The Age of Turbulence: Adventures in a New World. The books is due to be published today (Monday) and allegedly the main topic of it is the war in Iraq, weapons of mass destruction in Iraq and oust of Saddam Hussein which US and Britain claim to be the primary reasons for war, not oil.

At first sight it seems to me like Alan Greenspan is just looking for the opportunity to make a lot of money by coming with a biography to denounce the war as hypocrisy. What boggles me, though is that he wouldn’t come clear with it right away… Why wouldn’t he say so at the time? Was retaining his high pay job more important to him than people dying in war for oil? If he knew all about it, if he knew first hand the war in Iraq was not about the weapons of mass destruction, why did he not say so at the time? Why only now, that he wants to sell the book he comes clear about it? If he feels so strong on the issue, why oh why did he not say so at the time?

There are some positive aspects to it though – Alan Greenspan’s book might help wake up a few more Americans, which is never too late for. It is possible that the remorse eventually caught up with the dude and he wants to clear his own conscience so he no longer keeps silent about it. And maybe he wasn’t able to talk about it why he was in the office… but what do we know. Money talks!

I think the men with power will utilize their might to spin and discredit him, which will be fairly easy not that he is out of the office, because he “doesn’t know all the facts” anymore, does he? It will be just more damage to the US reputation abroad because there’s few high rank Americans who still enjoy international respect and Alan Greenspan is one of those few.

Now to the obvious – the facts are easily available and no one is “shocked” anymore that this war is in fact about oil, not terror. Unless you’re really slow, you’d already know that. However it is always a big positive to have a high rank fed come up and state the obvious. Even though we all know it and have known for a while, it is in fact sad there’s almost 10 million children who die throughout the world each year, yet billions are spent to kill tens of thousands in the name of protecting the few that might become victims of a possible terrorist attack. Think about it… Does it sound like “our people are worth more than your people” attitude to you?
