America Inc. - redux.

The commenter sums it up pretty well -

"If these crooks turn out to be at fault for the rig explosion and they don't go down for it - well - that's final definitive proof that no longer live in a democracy but in a corporately-owned criminal state. (Think post-Soviet Russia, but with shopping malls.) "

The sad thing is though - if proven correct - it would be definitive proof about something that has been going on in the United States of American for far too long. I seriously wonder if the damage can be repaired.
