What is evident is massive long-term "winking" or collusion between government and business to the extreme detriment of sentient life forms. As someone who has studied and was qualified in NIMS incident command and exercise design, I am horrified by the ineptitude of the government's response to this "incident".
It's not ineptitude, it's policies and priorities that forsake everything but profit. Notice that the corporate gov't is utterly competent and efficient when they decide that a big brokerage firm must be bailed out. The apparatus that got Obama elected was a well-oiled machine. Then he suddenly can't govern; alluva sudden his administration is all thumbs? Bullshit. He/they merely have an agenda different from ours. Disaster capitalism.
