http://rense.com/general90/spill.htm&quot;Will it still be a spill when millions of people in Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida are losing consciousness from the stench in the air, that will not dissipate?
Will people have to convulse and hemorrhage from their internal organs and lungs before the corporate media will show at least a modicum of truthfulness?
First, the stench will be overwhelming and it won&#039;t go away. The air itself will kill because crude oil is composed of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, hyrogensulfide, benzene, toluene, xylenes, ethlbenzene, and trimethylbenzene.
According to the Federal Register and OSHA these are all extremely hazardous substances.
Exposure can cause the following health effects: eye and skin irritation, narcoses, and/or chemical pneumonitis.
High concentrations of hydrogen sulfide can cause headaches, dizziness, unconsciousness and/or death.
More worrisome yet is hurricane season is coming. And a Gulf hurricane that hits any part of our Gulf Coast, this summer, could produce unheard of destruction, sickness, and death. &quot;...and will the cost of energy, transportation gas, cost of goods transported rise?  Most assuredly part of the plan + cap and trade tax.  Now who caused the pollution?  We the people or government and corporations?  Who should pay and be taxed?  We the people or corporations?  CORPORATIONS! ...so the govt and corporations will stop creating poverty as well.  And there is no man-made global warming causing pollution and poverty.  Here&#039;s a perfect example of who should pay the money they are trying to steal from &quot;we the people&quot; instead of the corporations.  Cap n Trade = govt and corp BS.  Just another bailout for corporations.  They need to pay for their own mistakes.  Maybe next time they won&#039;t willingly make them!!For the love of money, power, control over others lives...and destroying the ecosystems of the earth in the process.  How greed blinds.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gulf Oil &#8216;SPILL&#8217; &#8211; What A Lie<br
