14. The Bush-Cheney-Rove deregulation of "Big Oil" and the "Big Oil" seat in the White House

Edited on Tue May-04-10 09:11 AM by FBI_Un_Sub

was a factor. "Big Oil" fights every regulation (e.g., double hulls on super tankers as the Exxon Valdez), and personally attacked the climatologists who published "global warming" studies......

Added on edit: And "Big Oil's" lobbyists protect and broaden their tax breaks. (And "Big Oil" has one heck of a lot of tax breaks --- that we pay for).
