It's beginning to appear that the southern states of LA, MS, AL are going to be fucked for a long long time.... but what does the future hold?
What happens when this oil is dragged by the currents and storms down through the Florida Keys and takes out the Miami beaches? Florida is a key election state. This could change everything. If florida's beaches are fouled for generations, Florida's tourism goes with it and Florida all but dies.
What happens to New Orleans when the wetlands are destroyed? Are we witnessing the end of some of our major coastal areas? The people already out of business (fisherman, shrimpers, etc...) are now working for BP, using their boats to help clean up efforts, but now they are getting sick... people have been admitted to the hospital for poisoning from exposure to all the oil and their boats are deteriorating. And they have not been paid by BP, but fear speaking up about it.
I think at this point we can safely say, this oil leak is going to change things forever. The question is... to what degree? And we really need to stop giving speaking platforms to idiots like Sarah Palin. Even the news channels are straight up calling her an idiot now, on the air. No more dancing around it or giving her the benefit of the doubt.... she is retarded. Plain & simple.
I'm very interested in how they expect to clean this up. I don't see it happening. If it fouls the wetlands, those are done, and probably New Orleans along with them. They can't be 'cleaned' with high pressure hoses like they attempted with Valdez. We are spectators to what is quickly becoming a global event. Once the hurricanes start coming in, all bets are off. What will happen to the rest of the Caribbean? Cuba, Jamaica, Cancun,.... many, many islands..... Makes me fucking sick.
2010: The year we poisoned the Gulf of Mexico. Drill baby, drill.
