What a Gulf Oil Surprise-- Not

The Federal Minerals Management Service acted as an arm of the oil industry, to the point that the MMS allowed offshore oil drilling without the required permits to ensure that the drilling didn't threaten endangered species. MMS regarded itself as an advocate of the oil industry and that their job was to make sure that every obstacle in the oil industry's way was cleared.

It'd be sort of like the bank guards leaving the safe open and going on a coffee break for eight years.

MMS is more and more being revealed as a near-criminal enterprise. When the plague of prosecutors descends on this mess, one can only hope that they take a very hard look at the collusion and, dare I say it-- corruption that was going in in the MMS.
