1. No, BP needs to stay out of the Gulf. They've way over taken their lifetime damage limit.
2. Heard/watched your interview with 'Kurt' today. He needs a time machine to give himself a day in the life of a middle class American woman in 1964. He'd learn a lot about oppression.
BP has shown their true colors and should suffer the corporate death penalty in the US. They have proven they are not above lying to cover up their criminal mis-deeds, to put it politely. Oil corporations get away with way too much due to their world wide econoic controls and influence in our political system and this is not good for anyone, except them.
"With the ever-growing influence of corporate CEOs and their right-wing allies in all aspects of American life, Hartmann’s work is more relevant than ever. Throughout his career, Hartmann has spoken compellingly about the value of people-centered democracy and the challenges that millions of ordinary Americans face today as a result of a dogma dedicated to putting profit above all else. This collection is a rousing call for Americans to work together and put people first again."
—Richard Trumka, President, AFL-CIO
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"If you wonder why and when giant corporations got the power to reign supreme over us, here’s the story."
—Jim Hightower, national radio commentator and author of Swim Against the Current
From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
—Peter Coyote, Actor and author of Sleeping Where I Fall
