The BP Oil Spill is a Blessing

Few things make me as ill as the desecration of wildlife.

However, this catastrophe may be a blessing, in that it will illuminate the innate corruption of our representatives.

The US Government is to blame for this disaster – BP is simply a parasitic twin with a black card (pun indented).

Our representatives essentially rapine pillaged the fuck out of the Gulf of Mexico and disguised their transgressions with ‘executive privilege’ as they covered up the inner workings of the secret energy task force.

The Bobby Jindal and the Minerals Management Service were for sale, scumbag senators sold the drilling rights, and Halliburton poured the concrete.

One of the most important ecosystems on Earth was irreparably damaged, thousands have lost their livelihoods, and millions of gallons of some shit called Corexit was dumped into the ocean without fully understanding its effects on wildlife and humans. Yeah, with a name like Corexit, it must be environmentally friendly.

While this is a great tragedy that is bound to get worse, I take solace in knowing that perhaps this will light a fire under the asses of the goaded masses, forcing them to realize that they have been on the receiving end of arcane capitalist rape for the past hundred years. But, it probably won’t.
