This is Happening in Brazil, and Chevron does not have the USA government, the FDA, or the EPA or NOAA to protect them from criminal charges....

Yep heard this on a podcast and started cursing in my car.

Stephen Hawking explained that as our population grows, we should explore and perform the idea of living in the far reaches of our galaxy/universe. At this point in time, if we keep this up one of several things will happen. A)We have no choice but to abandon Earth in a last ditch effort. B) We don't leave earth and fail as a people or C) We see the error in our ways and reform the way we literally do everything.

At this rate, I choose B but hoping for C.

And so, we see why Obama intially declared off-shore drilling banned in the USA, only to recant a couple of months later... so the oil companies can show us all why it was the right decision in the first place!

So far as I recall PatriotSon01, a judge overturned Obama's decision because that particular judge has stocks in oil......

It wasn't Obama? I fall prey to my own political ignorance and the purposeful mislabeling and reporting by the media... Thank you for the clarification! It also brings to light the other side of the corruption coin - the courts!

Obama had a good start.............the problem with open market stocks is that anyone with the funds can buy into them, effectively creating a divide and conquer situation amongst the population....the have and the have nots.....jeez hey you'd think the president of the USA would have little more power then that judge......
