A Rogue Company

Is the corporation now entrusted with fixing the oil leak in the Gulf of Mexico more interested in the media spin of damage control than actual control of damage? With an abysmal record of violations nearly one hundred times worse than the amount of wrong doing wrought by BP's nearest ranking competitor in terms of reported safety violations with BP held to account for more than seven hundred (700) and the second worst ranking offender responsible for only eight (8) in the same period, one must ask just how flawed the management of BP has been. No sane person would claim that BP deliberately unleashed this disaster, but no one could doubt that some grave, perhaps even criminal negligence has been involved.
