Here because you are a dumbass I will give you an example even you can follow:
If I get into an accident and it was the fault of someone else. I would still expect the emergency response services to come to take care of the emeadit problems. I would not expect the person (responsible for the accident) to take me to the hospital or clean up the street or repair anything.
Hell Candleman knows this, that in that hard dick state of NC (at least in 1987), The local government will take care of the repair and clean up but then charge the person responsible, for all of that.
Just like I would expect the government to to everything (to include anything) to protect what it is responsible for and then bill whoever for the cost of it.
That is not what happen and why people are pissed at Obama and the government for this oil even touching the coast.
This would have been different if 15 or EVEN 30 days after the leak they saw a shit load of government ships taking on oil booms, hey, oil fiber, to clean up whatever they could, then even if it would have touched the coast people would have figured the spill was just to much and the government could not stop it. THAT IS NOT WHAT HAPPEN.
What happen was we saw the government doing almost nothing and not only did they do almost nothing, but they STOPPED others from doing things that would have helped UP TO 40 DAYS AFTER THE LEAK. That is just outright incompetence and what people are pissed about.
