Random Thoughts

I've been thinking about the oil "spill", and I'm really frustrated. You have BP, which was one of the largest contributors to the Obama campaign, who is proving themselves to be brutally inept. Then you have Obama, who was supposed to be a leader, who is even more inept. Unless of course he's intentionally allowing the spill to continue going. With the revelations of the Dutch company which offered to help clean the spill days after the accident being denied, Louisiana's attempts to build barrier islands to protect the wetlands being denied and a total breakdown in leadership, I wonder if Obama is actually inept or if there is more. Perhaps he wants this to be a disaster so that he can call for the nationalization of the energy sector in the United States. He would understand that you need a disaster to do something like that in America. Americans won't stand for a government takeover of an industry unless there is a perception that the industry is corrupt. This is interesting because most Americans believe government is corrupt, yet we'll allow the corrupt government to take over a sector of the economy that is perceived to be corrupt.
