How many times will we fall for the same con? It seems like the Exxon-Valdez disaster would have proved that there is no technology for stopping catastrophic oil spills. Yet here we are, watching the Gulf fill with oil while BP tries to invent the wheel. Next on their desperate agenda is Plan C: The Junk Shot. This will be an attempt to clog the gushing well with waste debris, including "shredded tires and rags."
Amazing. We have the technology to let a soldier sitting at a computer in Nevada push a button and kill someone driving down a dirt road in the middle of Afghanistan. We spend billions every year to maintain the world's largest nuclear arsenal and a missile defense system so advanced it doesn't even work.
For saving the environment and the livelihood of thousands of Americans, we have "shredded tires and rags."
