I would have had straight A's through school if it were up to me. Wow, I live in a town (Endicott, NY) where IBM has contaminated a large portion of it with TCE.  And they are number 2.

]]> Comment on For Appearance Sake: The BP Oil Spill Now by TheLongViewdotOrg http://inspiredeconomist.com/2012/02/24/for-appearance-sake-the-bp-oil-spill-now/comment-page-1/#comment-40577 TheLongViewdotOrg Sat, 21 Apr 2012 14:31:00 +0000 http://inspiredeconomist.com/?p=7149#comment-40577 Thank you for the comment. Yes, many entities have capitalized on the tragedy of the spill, including non-profits. But typically, in economies like the one we endure presently, non-profits support has been frequently reduced, while Big Oil continues to be subsidized, and at that, to amazing heights of prosperity. It's difficult to compare the manipulative corporate power of a BP versus that of a National Wildlife Federation whose focus is environmental care I believe.   Motivations play a large role in long term success and failure of clean up efforts.   It is true that it is a complex (and convoluted) relationship between corporations and the "causes" they support. The National Wildlife Federation is funded in part by several aggressive polluters but the organization is dedicated to saving wildlife, correct?   However, for BP, the dedication lies in advancing their economic interests. Historically, there is no reason to consider that if certain production processes would result in overall profit, BP would have the spill occur all over again (calculated risks include all losses after all). Perhaps the damage will be localized in a different part of the world - or not - but those who suffer the consequences; from local businesses to wildlfe, will scratch their heads having defended/financially supported [through our taxes] Big Oil.
