Accidents Like This Don't Just Happen
Big Mike Breaks It Down
He's got a blackboard and he's not afraid to use it!
What's the connection between oil company executives, wet t-shirt contests, the Department of Interior and the disaster in the gulf? Scary thing is, there is one.
Watch Big Mike break it down and connect the dots. Hey, if you're going to stand in front of a blackboard, you might as well use it to actually explain something!
There's been a lot of finger pointing and a lot of confusion about how we came to face the greatest oil spill in US history. This video lays it out. This problem started in Washington and can end in Washington, but only if President Obama and other elected leaders get real about closing the revolving door between corporate lobbyists and our government.
Lobbyists make up 2% of Washington DC, yet they've been able to run roughshod over our democracy, rigging the rules and fixing the system so that 98% of the country gets little or no say.
If you think it's time to take our democracy back, we think this is a video you and your friends will want to see.

Oil Spill??? When did oil spill, must have missed that one. Doesnt everyone know this is an oil leak
Why aren't people from the Dept of Natural Resources down there helping to clean these poor suffering birds? Would the government please do something? Why isn't more being done to clean up the oil now? All BP cares about is capturing the oil from the well.Thank goodness that I'm not the President or I might have threatened war with Great Britain by now.
