This was posted in the video section, but I think it needs to be posted here too. It's a short video of a substance that will solidify the oil.I'm now seeing that we have the ability of using multiple technologies to clean this mess up, but it's all practically being ignored by MSM and the government.
Now, I'm asking myself; self, why are these cheap and easy solutions being ignored while the process currently being used may be doing more damage than good? Who is benefiting by allowing these solutions to be ignored and the tragedy being allowed to grow by the hour? Why is a half-assed process being employed to disperse the oil? Could it be because BP is making even more money (they do have a vested interest in the company that is providing the dispersant currently in use) by allowing this disaster to grow with no end in sight?
I'm getting very angry at the lack of progress corporate America and the US government is making in handling this spill while yet another commission gathers to wring their hands over what to do.
If the proles of this country have the damn gumption and ingenuity to come up with these simple cheap solutions, then why in the hell can't the government take over, employ the manpower it's going to take to clean this up and charge BP, Transunion and Halliburton for costs- with interest, of course, to start cleaning this mess up?
