Oil Clean Up Efforts are Slowing

Most of us are aware that the oil well was finally capped on the 15th of July.  Now BP crews are pulling back on their cleanup efforts. The LA Times wrote an article here: http://articles.latimes.com/2010/jul/31/nation/la-na-oil-spill-boom-20100731.

Did anyone doubt this would happen? Is there anyone who thinks oil drillers are eco-friendly, caring people? There is no way that they intend to clean up their mess, their whole motis operandi is to pillage and plunder without worry of the consequences.

I, also, have no sympathy for the people on the gulf who thought they could make money from the bounty of those pristine waters and, also, make money from drilling for oil in it. They got just what outcome they so greedily ignored.

I have made a lot of sacrifices in my life for the betterment of living things and I have been rewarded with a life of being surrounded by beautiful creatures. They chose not to. Now, all the living things and the rest of us have to pay the price for their recklessness and greed. Nothing new, just another nail in the coffin.
