Banned from YouTube BP Oil Disaster Video

Might get removed again soon.

So, lets think about this y'all. What is the primary drive of our economic system, capitalism? Profit. Profit runs our world. Corporations need profit in order to invest, creating economic growth. It was profit that caused BP to disregard safety procedures, pick up production and further exploit their workers. It was profit that caused BP to worry about collecting oil as much as they could, instead of covering the leak. It was profit that prevented BP from stopping rig early when there were clear signs of danger.

Profit, because they have to. You cannot reform capitalism's primary drive. Regulations were in place already. Its that they weren't enforced. Why? Because the regulators have been bought out by corporations. Our government is owned by corporations, the logical conclusion under capitalism.

This greed is literally destroying our planet. How much longer are we going to sit by our computer screens? Its time to get organized and take to the streets. Its time to stop this shit, because our planet wont survive.
