The Daily Beast has uncovered a BP memo showing that five years ago, as opposed to blast-proof lodgings, they put workers into cheap portable trailers right next door to dangerously explosive facilities solely to cut corners and save money. The result became known as the Texas City Refinery explosion where 15 workers died and 170 were injured.
This disgustingly tasteless internal document justified BP’s callous, greed-centered, cost-cutting as “The Three Little Pigs.” Ironically, it is the capitalist pigs who gambled with the lives of its workers by building cheaper housing for workers after comparing the cost of housing fellow human beings in blast-resistant buildings versus flimsy trailers.
Once again, when corporations gamble, it is the people who lose and pick up the tab.
Why should our “betters” care? To them, the lives of dumb Plebeians are expendable!
Here’s the memo obtained by The Daily Beast and read the rest of the story at their website.
