3. This is what you get when you don't even bother to hide the mess with dispersants...
This is what it looks like on the seafloor of the Gulf of Mexico right now.

The Chinese clearly just do not care about the Earth, as evidenced by the horrid pollution we all saw during the Summer Olympics. If you don't spend the money to manufacture in a clean manner, you get pollution. This is, as bad as it looks, the least of China's pollution problems.

5. It doesn't matter what people think or want here either...
The military industrial complex is all that matters, and their wants are all we can get.

7. Sadly, that is the bottom line...
Money talks. People are expendable.
