Must See Video for Jeff McWaters
State Senator Jeff McWaters in an email blast said “It is understandable that accidents do happen; however we must be more prepared in the future for such disasters. Americans must learn from what happened, creating new science to improve our current drilling technology for future oil discovery.”
Um… no…
Like Rachel Maddow points out the only technology that has improved is our capacities to drill deeper and in deeper water. Mention “drilling” and “technology” in the same sentence and me and a majority of the United States citizenry will personally beat you down. We call “bull shit” to all the “oh technology is the answer” con artists.
We need to break our addiction to dirty fossil fuels and be smart about our investments in energy. President Obama gets it! He announced today that it’s time to roll back “billions of dollars in tax breaks” for oil companies and use the money for clean energy research and development. Amen!
