Chevron Is Running a Con Game

Found this blog post at The Unsuitablog that so accurately nails the arrogance of corporate America in general and the oil industry in particular, that I just had to pass it along and, of course, add a few of my own comments.

It’s time to recognize Chevron for the hypocritical, phony, band-wagon-jumping, contemptible, lying, bastards they are.

The con game they are manufacturing against America’s common sense to make us believe they care about what is happening to the environment and us while providing a lifeline for the oppressive and murderous Burmese regime is disgraceful.

They orchestrated a coup against the US House of Rep last year in the wake of the juntas crackdown on it’s citizens by arguing that if they didn’t maintain access to Burma’s rich gas fields then someone else will. And our fool reps, with dollar signs in their eyes instead of compassion in their hearts, bought it.

This has only emboldened Chevron to pull that same wool over the public's eyes so they can stay in a business that enslaves indigents and props up a Fascist government all in the name of profit.

Please, don't support them.
