"U.S. regulators don't mandate use of the remote-control device on offshore rigs, and the Deepwater Horizon, hired by oil giant BP PLC, didn't have one. With the remote control, a crew can attempt to trigger an underwater valve that shuts down the well even if the oil rig itself is damaged or evacuated"

Here’s the real question we need to ask these people. We live in America, so why do we have to vote for evil, period? Why is evil the only option on the ballot? What’s the point of democracy if it means rule by the people, represented by evil. The reason evil is the only option is because somewhere in our country’s history, the political elite decided that the masses are holistically retarded, and all voting issues should be limited to a color-coded choice between red and blue.

The controversy is more one of pharmaceutical interests v.s. cures for disease rather than political beliefs and in this case it is a case of what's right and what is terribly wrong with our current government under President Obama.

It's not enough saying a cap-and-trade system will work in theory. Sure, the underlying economics behind a perfect cap-and-trade system are sound, but it is very unlikely any ETS ever developed will be perfect.
