Re: Chess Insight from the Great Paul Bonham...
I think you are mixing up left and right. Fox is right. To rephrase, Fox is on the right. :)
Next, I don't watch CNN for most of my news. Only the times when there is something of great interest in the U.S. Mostly their politics are boring.
I'm watching what I'll call an "ecological disaster" from a blown out well. I don't see the same picketers or groups complaing as there were about the duck at one of our oil sand companies. Have you noticed it? It's beyond pollution.
They show people complaining about BP and the slow progress being made. Still, you don't see many complaining about the economic benefits from the drilling and offshore oil industry. Those good paying jobs on the rigs and onshore spinoff jobs.
The U.S. government takes a royalty as far as I know. Must be at least 20%. It's like ownership. Why don't they mention this partnership? How about the oversight. When I worked with natural gas I had an inspector from the Federal government here in Canada who came out and checked the installations I maintained. I haven't heard the American government had anyone on board that rig.
It's not enough to watch. Be critical.
I think the tries they have been making are because the government is telling them to do something. While I hope they succeed I don't expect anything before the relief wells are finished.
It seems to me they might have hit a grand daddy of oil fields. Hard to think they won't drill another well close after this one is plugged.
It's not a surprise this has happened. Only that it took so long. I doubt you'll read that.
