It is a Damn shame our world is selfish and corrupted. I don't pray as much as I should, but I am definitely praying for a solution, an ethical solution that will benefit our planet and the animals within it. After all it is our only home in the universe. I just feel bad that our planet has to suffer because some people( a lot of people) take our world for granted, and the innocent such as the animals that live in the ocean have to suffer. I want to live in another world because this one is starting to really get on my nerves.

Oooooooh these evil corporations who do their corporation stuff that oppresses the little guy. Sounds like me in high school. What a sorry excuse for not wanting to take responsibility. Who is it that empowers these companies (if u want to call it power)? Us. Who sits on the sidelines and continues to vote for politicians receiving kickbacks because of "key issues". WE DO. In the race for political power topics like abortion and immigration are used simply for votes. Only unpopular politicians take up issues that aren't popular. Once you understand this then u understand that power is in the ballots of the mis informed. Once you can see past that then you will no longer be a part of the problem. Do you feel same about stockholders as you do corporations? Whats ur solution for large scale production? Government? Or should we live in caves? I would prefer the second. Its people that don't understand economics or even the basics of how business works that screw us. Or maybe its these "anti-everything", "i am unique and special" people who just argue for the sake of it. If the second then grab ur Depeche Mode CD and Mac-book, then head the the local Starbucks where you are out of my way. On a side note, BP needs to clean that crap up even if it bankrupts them. Companies as well as individuals need to take responsibility for the health of our planet or we wont have one left. john you sound like stewy on family guy blaming everything on “corporations”.

It's good business to divide, separate and conquer the masses. Just get them all riled up about issues the corporations don't care about. Distract them and keep them voting for 1 of the 2 parties. Keep them occupied with guns, god and gays, and taxes, and they won't notice that they have no power anymore, because instead of fighting the real evil the multinational corporations, the <1% of the world that own 99.4% of the worlds wealth, the people can fight each other. Then the corporations win! People please wake up and see that it is not each other we must fight, it's the very powerful that are destroying everything for more money and more power and they don't give a **** about the people, the animals, the environment we depend on to make a living. They laugh at the game of manipulation they're playing. Eisenhower said in his closing speech "Beware the military industrial complex." For the bible thumpers out there, I think there is something in there about praying for discernment. Benny,

America has been money hungry and oil hungry for a long time. and there have been numerous avenues for our way of life that had the technology to completely cut oil out of the works. but these things aren't part of our reality...because the people who make the decisions don't see much profit in it. that's the sad part. it's not about liberal view points vs conservatives. you wanna know the real wackos in this scenario? the people who have campaigned for destruction and bloodloss and war in the name of oil. can't you see? the fat corporate moguls aren't caring where this oil ends up or how it gets cleaned...just as long as they still make their margin of profit. that's where WE are foolish. because we bicker like children, pick political sides, and banter back and forth...not realizing that our voice really doesn't matter all that much to the people who have the power to make the decisions.

Get a bicycle if you are opposed to drilling for oil in America but certainly don't whine about stopping everything here and then buy it from other countries. The real sacrifice that we will be dealing with if the wacko mentality continues is the sacrifice of humans...oh yeah...we already do that and have butchered over 50 million in this "land of the free". wunsacon: typical liberalism…force the masses to bow to the wishes of the liberals, THEN you will change too!

What real choice is there? And why should we do it alone, especially knowing that won't solve anything? If I want to get to work, what choice do I have but to pump gas into my car? (I can't afford a new car. And there aren't a fleet of used hybrids/electrics for me to buy second-hand. Yet.) Without paying 3x the price, how many locally manufactured goods do you think I can afford? As for housing, which consumers get to choose the suppliers of the builder? Your charge of hypocrisy is childish. We live in the same world you do and face the same constraints. And I'm not going to martyr myself, to live a greatly substandard living, by buying a new, expensive hybrid or buying locally, while you and yours do whatever you want, because then all I will have done by not buying foreign is make those foreign goods (incl. oil) cheaper for you or anyone else who decides they want to keep buying foreign. When some people conserve and others don't, then they'll just use up the excess capacity and not change policy. Bottom line: if you don't sacrifice, I'm not going to either. >> However, these same hypocritical wackos then pump gas into their cars and buy manufactured goods from other countries, eat food grown in other lands, have houses built with wood from other countries, etc.

Let's consider the ultimate hypocrisy and see one of the reasons why America is being judged with things like this oil spill. Environmentalists demand that we cease drilling off of our coasts, that we shut down pollution-generating industries, stop lumber harvesting, return farm and ranch land to an undeveloped state, etc. However, these same hypocritical wackos then pump gas into their cars and buy manufactured goods from other countries, eat food grown in other lands, have houses built with wood from other countries, etc. Why do those hypocrites talk about "saving the earth" but the only "earth" they care about is their back yard? If it is “bad” for America, why is it good for some other country? Those other countries typically generate several times more pollution per developed quantity so how is that saving the "earth"? The only reason we have gotten away with this hypocrisy up to now has been due to our wealth and power. Those days are coming to an end and even the earth worshippers are going to wish that we had some of that nasty ol’ development back. But the sad news – its not coming back! God is a god of justice.

The American Dream was actually killed a long time ago and it has been a walking dead man for a few decades due to God's mercy. We killed it with the following: Legalization of baby butchering with over 50 million butchered Glorification of sodomy Overall elevation of the Constitution over God's law Removal of God from our schools Removal of God from most churches Bye-bye dream....hell-o nightmare!
