I am going to make this one short and sweet for now…
The BP Oil Spill is an ecological disaster of epic proportions. People can finger point to the government and regulations, but the fingers all need to stay pointed at BP. I just saw a post on Lifehacker regarding donations for spill victims, nobody should be donating money for this; BP should be paying for clean-up, subsidizing fishermen’s living expenses, and paying off any other business owner who has been impacted by their mistakes.
This is not a time for charity; this is the time to take what is owned from the people who caused this.

On another note, if you planned on helping with clean up efforts – read this article first. Crude oil is toxic to humans and the removal process can lead to long-term health issues.
