That this sub-human scum bag will end up with a multimillion dollar a year lobbying job no matter what the outcome of this catastrophe. And, absent a miracle, will never see a day of jail time. What is just as sad, what Cummings said is wrong: there is no way a CEO would be held accountable in this day and age. Look at BP, Koch, ad nauseum. We need to start, as a people, rising up and making sure these things stop happening and that those that are liable/guilty are held accountable.

we CANNOT allow this to continue.
