My Biggest Fear Is Now Reality

I’ll save you the video from my spiritual blog, but basically it looks like my country is being led by incompetant fools (to put it bluntly), which is (believe it or not) one of my biggest fears.
My fury with BP who is humerously called Beyond Petroleum (although they should rename themselves Broke & Penniless after everyone sues them out of existence) is increasing by the day as their actions have destroyed the lives of millions of people, not to mention thousands of animals (if not hundreds of thousands).
Despite my outrage over this oil spill (which the media is now saying the busted “pipe” is leaking 2 MILLION GALLONS A DAY!!!), I’m even more upset with my government, or rather their lack of intelligent action regarding this whole affair.
No one seems to know what to do, and worse, everyone is simply blaming each other for what is happening while more animals and businesses die thanks to the “black gold” in liquid form.
Basically it seems as if my President doesn’t know what to do, and ironically neither do the experts whose only skill is calculating how much oil is poisoning the oceans.
All I ask my leaders (especially political) is that they know how to perform their task, and if not then to seek out those who do.
Right now neither of that is happening in my country (at least on the Federal level), resulting in our country being help hostage by the stupidity of a few.
Perhaps it’s time I consider entering the green field (as a few if my relatives have), and try to find a solution to help us become energy independent from oil, instead of semi-dependent on it.
Note: Sorry for the rant, as I usually will publish those privately.
However this situation is getting out of hand, and I’m tired of “Oilgeddon” dominating the news cycle.
