How about reality? The incident is a tragedy for BP and all the subcontractors involved. It is not as if BP profits by oil leaks, or that anyone reveled in the chance to dump its precious oil all over the ocean. BP gains nothing from this.
Hard to cry crocodile tears for a company that made a record 6 Billion dollar profit last quarter by abusing its dominant position in the UK and not passing on effects of falling global oil prices to motorist.

Its own CEO has worked for years to try to prevent precisely this kind of accident from occurring, and done so not out of the desire to comply with regulations, but just because it is good business practice.
The CEO worked hard?!?

Honestly, who gives a shit?

maybe instead of working hard he should have allocated funds, than they wouldn't be here thinking about plugging the hole with golf balls and shredded tyres..
