Deep water Horizon regulations being dismantled.
Don Beyer: The Deepwater Horizon disaster killed 11 workers and led to one of the worst environmental disasters in US history. Obama’s team created new safety rules. Trump put a man who lobbied against those rules in charge of Safety and Enforcement at DOI. He’s gutting the safety rules.*


And to think IDIOTS actually cheer when these regulations are being cut. What price is a human being though? Amirite?

RE: Deep water Horizon regulations being dismantled.
What rules are being gutted that would impact what happened to Deepwater Horizon? Not a rhetorical question, I legitimately want someone who knows to answer.

A lot of regulations are simply make work for bureaucrats and company employees. If we got rid of those stupid ones, then we could all focus more directly on ones that matter. I admit I don't know which of these regulations fit in which categories, but I do think we should ask the question and know the answer before blanket condemnations.

RE: Deep water Horizon regulations being dismantled.
Hmmm, sounds bad. I mean, it killed 11 people. If new regulations were needed, you'd think OBlunder would be right on top of it.

Deepwater blew in 2010. Tell me, when exactly did these life saving regulations get put into place? I mean, if Obama was on top of it, competent, and these were so badly needed, surely they went into place around 2010? AMIRITE?

Something tells me regardless of the regulations the oil companies have made the necessary changes policies and procedures to keep this from happening again. They have a vested financial interest to do so.

RE: Deep water Horizon regulations being dismantled.
UofM. Corners were cut. That has been documented. Regulations were put into place to make sure a disaster like that never happens again. They are dismantling those as we speak. You guys just want to wave it off with a hand. Sorry. History proves again and again that man will cut corners unless regulated. You need checks.

I'm pretty sure they broke rules and regs on the books already when the incident occurred.

Here’s the refs being dismantled for Fredo 1.

It’s all about monitoring and making sure they are being watched. Checks and balances. No sane person should disagree with these.

When are you going to learn that this isn't an argument? Just like Trump's tax bill is going to LITERALLY KILL PEOPLE, even though it isn't.

Come on Mach. They were LIFE SAVING REGULATIONS. Surely you can tell me when they were put in place by OBlunder.

Which came first; Obama wiretapping the Trump administration, or the LIFE SAVING DEEP WATER HORIZON REGULATIONS.

Look for yourself Fredo. Was doing Greybeard’s homework in another thread.


Lazy lazy lazy Jane wanted a drink of water so waited for it to rain.

Jeebus, you are on my ignore list so I had to physically hit the show button to the four threads you posted you pre mature ejaculator.


Settle down. You might want to look on who switched the water from Detroit to Flint. God where do you find the neurons to brush your teeth. You are out of your league. It’s like a Muhammad Ali boxing match with a 4th grader. Settle the F down Fredo.
