It’s an interesting dichotomy: The government, who many Americans claim is all knowing and all doing, compared to the Wizard of Oz who, without merit, made similar claims to the people of the Land of Oz. Unfortunately for Dorothy and for the U.S., these “claims” are not all true and have come back to bite us. Let’s face it- there’s no easy way to stop gushing oil, especially when the source of the leak is a mile underground. What makes us believe the government can find a solution? And if there is a solution, are we prepared to pay? Should we pay? Also, BP’s stock is plummeting. Is this an indication of a lack of faith in BP or the U.S. government or both?
Thoughts?
