Summary: Cenk explains how BP CEP Tony Hayward is acting like Dr McCoy from Star Trek. Ultimately it seems like Hayward isn't earning his crazy pay considering he doesn't seem to know what's going on at any level. Finally, Cenk shares stunning numbers on BP safety violations in the last five years versus other large oil companies.

1. Failure is an orphan.
:eyes:

The one core reason that used to justify upper management salaries was that they also owned the failures of the entire company.

3. I'm glad Cenk pointed this out
I have worked as an attorney on both the 2005 blast and the current oil spill, and let me tell you, they simply don't care! They don't give a rat's ass about anything but $$$$!

5. Well, obviously we need no regulation. The market will fix this gusher. Leave BP alone! Drill Baby
Drill! And, I'm sorry BP.

Just felt like channeling a teabagger.
